My Son Will Graduate High School at 14 - Which of the 3 Big Schools Would Be Best?
#15
I just wanted to say that we are in the same boat and are choosing to use the "Big 3" to acquire a bachelors.
I think the decision on whether to use these colleges or aim at a big name school depends on the student.
Students who make use of the big name schools usually don't mind repetition and will enter the honors college on the big name school campuses.
My ds won't have anything to do with repeating courses so we CLEP as we finish high school courses and will use them at least to fulfill the general eds.
Every student is different and you have to follow your gut about your own students.
Best wishes on this crazy fast paced roller coaster ride with your driven student!

P.S. Have you looked into joining a profoundly gifted community? It might help you to connect with other parents whose students start college courses at a young age. We just spent an amazing week at camp with others in our boat and are part of a listserv where we find guidance. Contact me if you'd like information.
