<p>Peterson's "Late and Rolling Deadlines" schools list includes many colleges that would be happy to accept him. He'll be considered a transfer student.
Late</a> & Rolling Deadline Schools
Are you sure he will be ready to go away to a four-year school this fall? If you and he are sure a dorm room at a four-year college is the right place for him to be in the fall, I suggest he transfer from the community college to a less selective college for fall 2009 and if he does not like it, apply to transfer to a more selective college next year. </p>
<p>If, a year from now, he has had a good spring semester at a CC and a good fall semester at a CC or a four-year college, his high school misdeeds will seem to be from the past, when he was a younger, less mature, different person.</p>
<p>If you can afford to pay, I'm sure that there will be lots of smaller private colleges that would LOVE your son as a student - even if his application is a little late. Think of all the schools, too, with lopsided Female/male ratios. Even if deadline has passed, have him call admissions and see if they will accept late apps.</p>
<p>I agree with anxiousmom. There are a lot of very nice small (<2000 undergrads or so) private schools that would love to have your son. Some that we are familiar with are Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota (March 1 freshman admission deadline), Bridgewater College in Bridgewater, Virginia (Feb 15 freshman admission deadline), or GoshenCollege in Goshen, Indiana. I think Goshen is particularly nice <goshen college="" on="" rankings="" lists="" and="" in="" books=""> and it has a very late freshman admission deadline. </goshen></p>
<p>I'm sure there are dozens of schools like these and, as anxiousmom says, they would love to have your son. A lot of them have more women than men, which is to your son's advantage.</p>
<p>If you used an educational consultant to help with the EG placement, you might want to consult him or her. Sometimes the Ed. Cons. have good suggestions (and contacts) for colleges.</p>
