<p>Crizello, about 10 years ago, my dear friend went through this with her son. Two weeks left and he wanted to quit. His dad went to the college and stayed at a hotel and basically got him through what was left of the semester since the term was salvageable. A lot of head shaking about that, but otherwise it was a $25K semester down the drain. He did transfer to a CC after a gap year, and it did take him many more years to get his degree. He had burned out academically, lost interest. But he did have those 8 courses solidly in place for freshman year, which made a huge difference in at least getting him an AA and a running start for him to limp to the finish line for a degree.</p>
