[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS who has severe ADHD and hates school, wants to live at home and commute. He is very social and I am trying to figure out if we should just have him go the Junior College route or find a school that allows commuters. I am worried that when all his friends leave for college that he is going to feel very isolated.[/quote] If living in NoVA, then GMU might be an option. GMU does require all students to live on campus 1st year, but he could come home on weekends and he would have nearby family as a support system. At GMU, all students are seeking a 4-year degree, which is a better environment if the goal is a 4-yr degree. NVCC is the other nearby VA option. The demographics are very different. Many students at NVCC are just trying to get a technician-level certificate, not even an AS degree. [/quote]
