Especially during Civid you Will learn to deal with so much uncertainty, to be cautious and flexible. You will be tempted to break the rules and have to deal with judgement if you do and if you dont.
I can't really enumerate how much !it's you will grow up if you move out.
FWIW, some of the most independent people I know commuted to college. I suspect it’s because they weren’t treated like babies in a dorm.

Nail straight As at Nova CC and then finish last two years at Southern college (also with straight A’s). Aim for Ivy League-caliber grad school
Poli Sci is basically the same at every undergrad. They all study the same texts. And it’s perfect for distance learning. I would not go to the South right now.

Second, to answer your question, I would recommend Option 1 for both myself & my child. I don’t believe there’s any equivalent substitute to starting college on campus, even if things are topsy-turvy this particular year. I’ve been chatting with my college senior DD about the effects of COVID, and we agreed that in a strange way, this upcoming fall will be an enduring bonding experience for incoming freshmen.
Third, if cost is a stumbling block, then I’d consider Option 2. I believe it’s important that you share your first year with your college cohort.
Good luck with whatever you decide!
Agree with this.

I would do number 3. So many kids will be here and it really doesn't matter where you are taking your classes online. You might have to reapply to your college or you could reapply to an even more prestigious college if that interested you.
