My boyfriend has a learning disability and most likely won’t get into college. There are a few colleges that may accept him, but there’s no way his family can afford it.
Should he be unable to go to college, what are his other career options?

MAKE HIM GO TO SCHOOL! Their is finacial aid, loans, he has to suffer now, so that later on in life he can enjoy the benefits of an education.

There are still plenty of jobs out there. You can check your local unemployment office–they usually have lists of jobs available in your area, and their educational requirements.

It’s certainly not the job market it used to be…but at high-tech jobs you can still work your way up, acquire skills on the job or on your own, and make a pretty good living. In my experience, software engineers tend to be college-educated; network and database administrators are easier jobs to get if you’re self-trained or went through a certificate program. (Community colleges, among others, offer certificates.)
