[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Yes, through a combination AP and taking a slightly heavier courseload in freshman and soph years, DC only needs 4 classes to graduate and its really only one class in the  major and 3 others in literally anything.

I will say that the school is pretty supportive in terms of even though DC is FAR from a model student and has poor grades, if DC wanted to 'take a semester or year off" they would keep the registration on hold...i.e. DC wouldn't have to drop out but  could come back to finish up in the future.

Our worry is if DC leaves (even if it is technically temporary) DC will never come back to finish. [/quote]

1) Visiting student option abroad (Singapore?), then graduate "on time" instead of a semester early
2) Visiting student in a techie region with a great internship and utterly different life experience (San Francisco?)
3) Short term contract or paid internship in his field, with this experience folded into that last semester somehow (since he has three "anything" courses).
4) Bribe of offer to live off campus for this last semester.
5) Visiting student at a typical non-STEM, full-on liberal arts school for those three anything classes (and more women!) --- SLC, Vassar, etc. (Yay, writing and lit courses!)
6) A Peace Corps type experience, where he goes and applies some of this science business through teaching or development work.
