[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, assuming that your kid is a freshman, maybe see if your DC can get into a second year living learning community? (My DD's school has four or five open to continuing students, not sure how common that is). Living in a freshman LLC helped my DD with social anxiety get off to a good start in school this year (and she was also very fortunate to become fast friends with her roommate and suite mate). The whole floor had two classes together the first semester, takes weekend trips, etc. I feel like she would have been lost without it. [/quote] This is great advice! I have a shy/socially anxious DD and she got into a women in science/engineering LLC and loved it. It really helped her knowing people with common interests and that they all chose that community specifically. She also made some close bonds on her alternative break service trip. [/quote]
