[quote=Anonymous]Towson isn't necessarily a safety for everyone. I know someone who was heartbroken to be turned down there. She went to Frostburg for a year, was miserable and dropped out of college. I suspect if your son had enough AP credits, community college may have been a limited option. Sometimes there are kids who can do AP work because they're very bright, but they are disorganized or not good at following through with the assignments and readings that school requires. They have low gpa but can handle the challenge of college and sometimes even bloom with the increased autonomy. OP, if you could share some of the schools where your child applied and especially those where he was accepted, it might be helpful to other parents who find this thread down the line.[/quote]
