[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would he consider going to community college for a year or two, prove himself serious and changed and then apply to transfer to any school "worth going to"?  Virginia has a guaranteed admissions program to the state schools from NVCC depending on NVCC GPA.  Don't know how it works elsewhere.  But generally, it's much easier to transfer into a college than it is to be accepted as a freshman.  GL.  [/quote]

Richard Bland College, in VA, is a community college owned and operated by William & Mary.  Bland doesn't have its own trustees/visitors; it's part of W&M proper.  Certain classes of Bland students -- IF they make moderately decent grades (like above a B average) -- are automatically entitled to transfer into William & Mary at the two-year point.  I'd look at this if your son is truly, highly motivated, and can and will really do well.  This is important, because if he isn't/doesn't, you and he have wated the whole two years, so there is a real risk on this.

This is so offensive on so many levels - it's as if everything rises or falls depending upon whether the kid eventually ends up at W&M.

News flash - W&M has a lot of graduates who are now waiting tables.  [/quote]
