If you’re full pay you likely can pay to hire an outside consultant  I think that will expand your ideas [/quote]

I think this poster is still living in 1994, although advice about getting a consultant is solid. There are plenty of options for OP’s son, but not BU, UMASS, Providence or even the lower NESCACs.

OP, he may have better luck outside of this region:

Dayton
Xavier
Bradley 
UT Dallas
Tampa
Roger Williams (RI)
URI
UNC Wilmington

There is no need to treat a few C's like a disaster; it happens.  And contrary to what is posted on this forum, your DC will get into a good school that is a good fit for them.  As for the lists of recommendations, there are a lot of really cool schools in there that a lot more kids should consider.  Probably would put an end to this drama over college acceptances.  I will put in a plug for Roger Williams (RI); my kid found it on their own and yes, I had never heard of it.  Great little school in a beautiful location.  Some really strong programs with good connections to supports and resources.  Kid is having a blast, working hard and is excited about learning.
