AlphaFrog is right, but there are many 4-year universities whom you would be suprised who they take. It's nowhere near as competitive as the colleges themselves make it out to be, as long as you aren't applying to the top-state school...I'm talking more like of the nearest 4 year that most people probably haven't heard of where sports isn't the biggest thing on campus.

However, if you are convinced that this guy won't pass, then I would probably (and professionally) advise his mother..."Based on his performance here and his SAT scores...I would highly recommend_____________ and I don't think _____________would be the best choice for your son because of his current performance, and I am concerned about financial resources going wasted".

SAT's tend to be astonishingly accurate in predicting success in college.

Then sit back and allow them to make the decision. If she wants to throw her money away, she will.
