[quote=Anonymous]My brother (who does have mental health challenges) sort of went through this. It wasn't that he didn't get into specific top choices, he just had VERY mixed feelings about the schools he applied and was accepted to. He decided to go because he didn't know what else to do, but totally freaked out on moving day and flunked out first semester. . He came home and went to community college on and off (alternating between working food service and taking classes, he hated each so much he'd switch between them every semester). Eventually had enough credits to transfer to a state school that he loved. So it did work out, it just took a while. I hope your DC eventually loves the school they've committed to, but if it doesn't work out, be supportive of different paths and don't imply failure. [/quote]
