[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry you and your DC are in this position, OP. I appreciate how strongly he seems to know himself in this moment, and his initiative in finding a solution. I think it would be hard, but I would try to let go and trust that he is serious about applying the following year. The gut is a powerful thing and his is set against the one school that admitted him. It would be very hard (and probably fool-hardy) to try to convince him otherwise. Your fears are totally understandable, but your DC sounds like he has a good head on his shoulders. He isn't asking you to support him while he backpacks around Europe. He's going to be working hard on a farm and hanging out with his grandparents. If he'd rather do THAT than attend this college, he obviously feels it strongly. I admire his initiative and how confident he is that he knows what he wants.[/quote]
