@econpop: this is a heartbreaking story. Can anything still be done? Perhaps to make commuting to a CC possible? Part time?
(Assuming grades didnt qualify him for full need universities and he lives in a state that doesn’t cover much for college.)
@rJason: not all meet need universities offer the same type of package. Some cover money for travel and incidentals in their package.
CC+Honors scholarship can be their safety. Generous full need universities can be their reaches.
