Please forgive me if this reply seems rude… Fistly, thank you very much for caring so much about your son’s school/college experience. However, I do believe that it would be much more helpfull if HE were here asking the questions telling us what HE is looking for, instead of his parent’s “opinion” about what he wants… I say this merely because many kids I know have confessed that they feel stiffled by their parents while at school, and that they consider going to college a safe heaven from such constant pressure… And parent’s views about what their kids “want” tend to be notoriously inaccurate (even if your kid wont confess so).
I’m not saying this is your particular case… Just that it happens and it would be helpfull for US if your son told us what he wants directly.
