As somebody who has been in a similar situation, I must warn that accepting Elon's offer could be perilous to them in long term. It looks like at least one of them will be dropping out of school before graduating to start working for Tesla. Later in his career, he might regret that. It is cool to impress big company and get a job, but if he is as smart as it sounds, he will have no problem finding a job after graduation.

But ignored the fact my fist Job was on the campus of Cranfield at a world leading RnD organisation - Cranfield being a Masters and Phd only University at the time :-)
