[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Updated:  DS is finally home.  He is taking off this semester and looking to apply to either UVA or VATech for Computer Engineering for Fall '23.  He was accepted by both UVA and VATech but turned them down to attend CMU.  Unfortunately, it didn't work out.  Will see what happens.  He will take a two weeks break.  After that, he is going back to his previous summer job as a software developer for $43/hour.  Since the job is 100% virtual, he is looking at living in South America for the next six months.  He seems to be very happy now that he is no longer at CMU.  He loved his time there but it just didn't work out.   [/quote]

Your DS made a best decision!  I am happy for him.

However, if your DS want to transfer to UVA or Vtech..  It will really depend on his freshmen year GPA at CMU.   My DS had the similar situation years ago.  Because his GPA is so bad from the school he was a freshman (NOT CMU), the state university could not accept him as an transfer student, even though the state university accept him with scholarship one years ago.   So DS has to go to community college to brig up his bad GPA before he can transfer to state university.

My DS is now a top software programmer at Silicon Valley.  Just a tory to encourage your DS
