[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for responses. We are thinking of other gap year options also but our thinking is that he needs another year or even two of high school level academics and activities and supervision as he just feels 1-2 years younger than his oeers. He needs practice at college before going to college. We are also worried about community college and living at our place as that may lead to even more social isolation. He longs for peers but his actual age cohort tends to be more sophiaticated than him. We have twins so we do have a sense of developmental range through the two boys and friends and I really do think there is likely something one could call “college readiness.” Another option is to go to a nurturing college - like a CTCL place - and also explore whether kids ever go through slower as that might also help.
