I think first thing is to step back and breathe.

I think getting 5 LORS is a bit many.

That they want to see further grades is a good sign.

Here’s a secret - there is no perfect school. You go to the dream, have a bad roommate or bad prof or hate the food. Or you go to the school you didn’t want to go to and meet your BFF. Kids can be happy at many schools.

Like all - you need a backup. Or you need to go to a CC and transfer in - but only if it doesn’t work out. There’s a good chance it will.

Focus on him being a kid and stop with LORs and other things that at this point are overdone.

Also, the C- - what subject ? Has he gone for tutoring ? Does he not understand the material ? If he has more As than Cs - as long as he can keep that grade, he may end up ok.

But if not there are still other schools - well known schools that would love to have him.

At this point, he’s experiencing the competition of the world but he’s likely done too much and should leave them alone. Overwhelming them will not help. Do you have a safety school just in case ? If not it’s time to find one.

Life will be about him - not his school - and it sounds like he has a lot of persistence. Perhaps a career in sales awaits

Best wishes to him.
