[quote=Anonymous]My nephew was in a nearly identical situation a couple years ago, including the single dorm room and a robust set of high school friends. He ended up coming home and doing a year of community college after freshman year before transferring to the state flagship where many of his high school friends (who he stayed in touch with) were. Sounds like he's doing the right things - running club, etc. But I think you also need to let him know that it's okay if he ends up taking a different path and you could evaluate that together over Christmas break (and taking a semester or year off before transferring is okay). There's so much build up that college is going to be great and it isn't for some kids - or takes awhile to get there. [/quote]
