Question
My son has a 22 on his ACT but his GPA IS A 1.6 and has been offer a scholarship for collage football. and we were told that by the ncaa standards,he would not be able to. Please tell me what to do this is his dream. He played in high school for three years.

Answer
Madonna, hello!

His counselor at college will likely recommend a school he can attend until he gets his grades up, maybe a nearby military school or junior college.  I have attached some websites for you to contact.  I hope he gets to live the dream.  If he gets focused on the short range goals, he will attain the long range goal!
