I think that if he is a straight A student and can do decently on the SAT or ACT he would have an excellent chance at a good automatic scholarship from University of Alabama (for us it ended up a few thousand cheaper than our cheapest in state option).

One thing I wanted to point out is that Alabama has a college transition and support program especially for kids with ASD. It’s run by the Psychology program and the PhD students also use it for research to find the most effective means of support for that population.

It may not be your thing, but I just wanted let you know it exists, and that there may be similar programs elsewhere.
