There has been no decision from Simon's school. They have said that this year the students will only be required to do three classes per semester (it is usually 4), they have reduced the classes need to graduate for any student in school this year by two. They are also not going to have a Winter session this year, and they will not have to make that up. They are going to remove the normal dead period for classes (I think it was 4:30-7) also to be able to schedule even more spread out classes to reduce congestion. Also, almost all classes will be offered online if students choose to take them that way even if they are on campus. This school already has very small class sizes.
He has also been chosen to take two classes over the summer, completely free and includes a stipend. And, he has been chosen for Williams First, which means we have to get him on campus the Friday before the Monday he would have normally been required.
BTW, how unusual is this. The first two weeks on campus is only freshmen. They have several introductory classes, as well as placement test to determine the level of each classes they will be placed in. They also have swimming lessons, and everyone is required to pass a swimming test.
