Woody,
I believe Ken is correct. If a parent doesn't sign, my understanding is that they have to be "emancipated" which is a apparently is not a trivial process.

There is some provision for getting around this in the event the parent won't sign, but I don't know what that is. I think it has something to do with the tax consequences.

SHE signed? The parents sign the LOI too? Most of these kids are 18...why would the parent need to sign the LOI?

Good or bad, she is now the proud parent of a Gator. I hope people will treat her civilly. To put it in perspective, I know how I would react if my son or daughter wanted to go to f$u assuming he or she had scholarship offers from each.

I don't think so, Jerry.

She seems to have felt that her son was making a mistake or at least an emotional decision. If I would have felt that way, I suspect that I would have done my best to talk my child out of it. In the end, had my child persisted, I would have reluctantly signed the LOI and let him/her do what (s)he felt was best for their life.
