He's only 17 but he finished his high school in the Philippines. (In the Philippines, grade school is only 6 years and high school, 4 years). They're going to migrate here in US soon. He's worried if he'll be in college or go back to high school because of his age?

Yes, he can go straight to college in US.
No, he does not have to attend high school anymore.
Once he has a high school diploma, he's O.K. to go to many colleges in U.S.
"Many" but not "all", because some schools require Tests' High Scores (different tests depend on different schools, different states,...) At that point, it's up to him and his scores!
Good luck!

It would probably be a good idea to check with the college first. You might want to see if the tutition or fees will be higher because he has not been living in the US. I know if you move from state to state to go to college it costs about twice as much. You might also check with your local community college. They are much easier to get into and cost a lot less.
I know there is a way!! Just look on line or check with admissions offices at the colleges. Good luck!

I finished high school at 17 in the United States (without skipping any years), so it shouldn't be a problem.

Concerning age, yes. Americans go to college, on average, 17-18 (younger people have been known go to college as well). Age will not stop him.

As long as he has a high school diploma, he's all set for college.
