I like uneventful days. I wish I had more of them!!! 😊

I don't mind you asking at all ! My son would prefer music business or possibly sound recording, I would like him to do golf management (less math and there are a lot of opportunites in the media and sales departments, not just being a golf instructor) but the schools we have seen have a golf club or a D3 team so he can play at college. He is very musical and would be well served at being a music historian or music manager, and the schools we have looked at have great majors in music.

Only one of them has a minor and he'd have to go into business/marketing and/or maybe history as a major (it's a new minor and not sure it really has what he wants to do). One of them has a great music business major and he loved the classes he sat in on (the marketing class he liked the most and the professor has a 5 star rating!) but the whle "vibe" of the college is not his vibe. he would do well there and I am sure he'd find a way to fit in, but he is on the spectrum (autistic) and has anxiety so he would prefer a more comfortable entrance into college life.

The third option has everything he wants, liked the professor, liked the classed, like the student body, and is sitting in on new classes in 2 weeks. The only down fall to this college is they require college entrance testing for home school students, and they also require a more intense application (not too bad, 2 referrals, an essay, nothing too difficult). They also have gen ed requirements where math "might" be a concern the other 2 noted above do not have elevated math requirements.

The fourth school has what he would like to do as a concentration in music, and I do not know if he would want to do music theory, band, chior, etc. It's more formal music and he wants music business themed. Plus he would need to be accepted there, and if he takes the ACT he would apply there but it's not high on the list at the moment. I still have a few schools I'd like us to see and rule out or consider, but the 3 (4) schools above are within 2 hours from where I live now, the others would be much further away. In state he also gets a NJ state financial "tag"... 2 schools are in PA but they are cheaper than the NJ schools so it kinda equals out.

We just finished (yeah!!!) american lit, and taking a small break before we head back to history and government. It's going to rain tonight and my son gets awfgul migraines with the weather so a break is good so he isn't too miserable. Haha

I just turned on my computer so off to catch up myself. Hope your Sunday was enjoyable. =)
