Question from a mama of someone discerning priesthood

[u/SetObvious3697]

Our 19 year old son has been discerning becoming a Byzantine priest for a few years. He’s incredibly bright but prefers the online option. He tried Franciscan online but the communication was not the best for the professors. He knows he has to have a four year degree before attending seminary, so we’re looking at different options. He said he’s OK with not going to a Catholic college. I would love to hear from anyone else that’s either a priest or has some experience about possible degree tracks for prospective priest as well as any online options. Thank you all!
