I know very little about PTI, other than the fact that one of my older boys was collecting for them when it first opened. I have heard that CCJ has really turned itself around and is now getting a much stronger group of guys. If you’re in Mesivta in Queens, I’m sure Rabbi Singer will have some good ideas for you. And as for college, although the hanhala have told parents that, under certain conditions, they will allow it (maximum 6 credits per semester), it is highly discouraged, especially during the first 5 or so years of BM. It’s only once the guys get into their early 20’s, that some begin to see that perhaps they won’t be staying for the full 14 years (or whatever it is now) s’micha program, and that’s where a lot of these alternative college programs have cropped up.
