My Son Will Graduate High School at 14 - Which of the 3 Big Schools Would Be Best?

It is not my motivation at all. I was planning on him graduating at 18 and then going to an on-campus college. He has bigger plans for himself. He wants to be done with all his formal schooling and then go to a foreign 3rd world country for 2 years when he turns 19 to do volunteer work.

He wants to be able to come home after that and be able to get married, support and raise a family without the stress of trying to get school done then.

He is not an average kid. He studies Latin and Biblical Greek on the side and wants to be fluent in both. He is also interested in Biblical Hebrew and Arabic. He knows that getting his basic college done he can later go into more advanced programs to study ancient languages, where his true passion lies. Getting his bachelors and possibly masters done early will help him get into his desired masters and maybe phd programs later.

Again, I don't want to hold him back at all. He is a bright kid, slightly aspergers (but still has pretty good social skills).
