[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son decided college wasn't for him.  After a year off (while working), we know it is important to get him back on track, but are not sure where to turn for advice.  Any suggestions on a counselor or a some sort of non-conventional degree program?  He is intelligent, just is done with sitting in a classroom full time.

What was he studying/what is he interested in?

This is my worst nightmare.

17:31, you are an unhelpful jerk.

OP, realizing this before your son has racked up huge tuition bills and student loans is great.  Look at how many people get a degree in one thing when they are young only to realize they want to follow another career path and take out twice as much in loans.

My advice is for him to apply to entry level positions at companies that promote from within.  Get him some real world experience so he can start to determine what it is he actually wants to do with his life.  School is not always the best way to figure this out.[/quote]

17:31 here. Fuck you. I was asking for more information and sympathizing. Please explain why you felt that merited name-calling.
