[quote=Anonymous]I haven’t read all the comments yet, so apologies if this is repetitive. OP, I know you said you feel like you have no fight left, but this is worth fighting for. You say your son loves this school and you think he could be academically successful there. Talk again to the disability services office about a guaranteed single. Push hard. If the single doesn’t come through, push again to revisit. It sounds like money isn’t an object, so if all else fails, yes, rent him a room off campus while paying for a dorm room. But in that situation, at least have him try living in the dorm as much as possible, knowing he can bail out if needed. Maybe he tries to stay in the dorm 5 nights and off campus for 2, or 4/3. You could defer and tell them why and ask again for priority housing accommodations in a single next year. Deferment isn’t withdrawing. [/quote]
