“I just look at my bank account and realize I’m graduating debt free” best quote of all time.
I know I like that quote, too. I went to a CC and transferred to a four-year institution and graduated with zero student loan debt. Unlike my little brother who went to a four year institution (UC Riverside) and graduate with a Finance degree and $89,000 in student loan debt.
@@leonardtran2282 damn, that’s a lot. Btw, what did you major in? And what school did you get your degree from? I would love to know?
Could be a lyric. It goes hard.
4.0 HS student attending community college, why? Affordability and the fact that I wanted to travel and figure out what I will be majoring in before dropping tens of thousands of dollars on an education. So I’m a freshman at community college at 25 years old. Major tip, join cappex not only to help you through finding scholarships but schools can view your profile and I’ve already been contacted by a school that I actually really want to attend in the Netherlands.
How are you doing now?
Update ???
I’m a veteran who is attending a CC after being away for over 10 years. Don’t let a long break from school discourage you. Take the first step and attack it head on.
@The Grown Up Millennial you are cute
Thank you for your service 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I am a student veteran who is attending a CC as well. Although, this is my last semester & about to transfer to a university soon
Kevin Doc Mesa thank you for your service
Bruh just use the GI bill dumbass
I have to agree with this 100%. I am currently a senior in HS and I was told that I should apply to a 4 year university after I specifically told my guidance counselor that I did not believe it was right for me. I don’t want to be high in student loan debt.
Unfortunately I started the process of applying and my anxiety had reached an all time high, and I had panic attacks almost daily.
Once I told her that I stood firm on my decision, she told me that I (and I quote directly) “weigh my options” and still apply) when I told her that I did, and my anxiety was at an all time high, she said oh ok.
I seriously thought it was ironic because my guidance counselor also attended a community college, and to push the idea of a 4 year to someone who obviously knows that it isn’t right for me, 😟
So community college? Yes.
Corben Bowen I applied to 10 4-year colleges even though I knew I just wanted to go to a community college, my mom still doesn’t like the idea but at this point it’s what I feel is best for me
Camille R girl I did the exact same thing 😭
Omg same, earlier in the year when I first stared applying my anxiety went way up and it deffinitly messed me up because now I have panic attacks... it was so so stressful trying to decide between 4 year colleges, and now that its almlst reached the decision date I dont even care anymore after all of the stress I put myself through and stopped overthinking and Im glnna go to cc
I think it improves the HS statistics so it makes the HS look better, at least when ranked.
I've come to realize that money rules the world....
Breda Chiago ok
@Isaac Allison lol
So epic so bad ass so unique
THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE MONEY THAT RULES THE MONEY , ALL DROPED OUT OF COLLEGE ...... HMMMMM.......
Pretty much.
Yo thank you, I have been deciding between community college and state school and all my friends have looked down on the prospect of me attending community college. I’ve also been told I’ll never have the “college experience” if I go to community college (which may be partially true but why should it matter anyways?) anyways it’s good to see a nice informative video on the pros of community college vs my elite peers making it sound like going to community college is the worst thing in the world
I'm glad you found it helpful! Ultimately, college is about getting an education and investing in your future earning potential and career. The "college experience" can be a valuable and important one, but I'm not sure it's worth what some people are willing to pay for it. Thanks for watching and I wish you the best in your decisions!
Real friends will support you no matter what! YOU DO YOU BBY! Congrats on graduating!
Hi
That "college experience" in my opinion only works if you are part or like a sorority because you have to have that experience to meet requirements and sororities are actually hard to get into and they do a lot of volunteer work and have special networks and certain charities they raise money, but for regular working adults like me it doesnt make sense to go to a huge university paying that expensive tuition AND living on campus. Like I work for a living I cant have a "college experience"
“The whole college experience “ thing is bullshit lmao sure you can party here and there but you should mainly be focused on a career path in college...high school was the time to really have fun not college as much due to the stress
This video is outstanding. You should be getting more views.
Thank you so much!
“Diversity of experience” THANK YOU!!! You perfectly articulated that special spice that I noticed at CC. And what a perfect way to phrase it
My pros where saved money, easy financial aid (grants), simple classes, plenty programs, not as tough as 4year, plus my liberal arts degree all transfered to my major so i dont have to take more classes for ged bs when i already did a great diverse of courses back in cc. Plus I graduated from cc debit free i did all the paynentd and recieved some grants
That's awesome!
since it was easier than a four year college, did that cause any issues when you transferred in terms of the rigor?
This was very helpful , I highly appreciate this video , Because it answered my question , that age limit does not matter to attend college , thank you
Great video. Another pro is that many CCs have a dual enrollment program where high school students (including homeschool students) can take a few courses for free, which count for both high school and college credit. This is also a great option if your high school does not offer advanced math or science classes.
This was a very informative video little lady.. thank you for uploading and good luck to you on your journey
this was the most insightful and empathetic video i have seen that talks about community, and the only video that has made me consider it. I'm a senior in hs and i have been wrestling between going to community and a private school which is amazing and i am so grateful i have been accepted but i simply cannot justify its costs. thank you so much, you have given me and probably many some much needed clarity
Very much enjoyed this video. Honest and to the point! I too attended a community college first and it’s the BEST decision I could have made.
I know this video is almost 4 years old, but it still helped me feel comfortable about going back to school, to CC. So thank you. Back in high school I got into a few 4 year colleges, but couldn’t afford to go. I also got into a local CC but my “friends” made me feel bad about it, the stigma like you said, and I never went. I started working instead. 8 years later, I lost my job due to this pandemic but it’s kind of a blessing in disguise because now feels like the right time to go back to school. I can afford it this time too! So come fall semester I’ll be starting CC online and hopefully when this virus decides to go away, on campus.
Congratulations to going back to school! The stigma and the financials are tough, but I'm glad that you're making decisions for you. :)
I've been in a community college and I've been in a ivy league university
both for engineering classes
In the community college you had smaller classes, the professors had both job experience and experience teaching, the tutors were always available and the teachers even helped tutor if you asked
In University the professor's put less effort into classes(many just took their lecture slides from someone else), the professors were also PhD students (so the school could save money, same went for the IT department), University over-charges for every service weather or not you use it
I also expected the quality of stuff on campus to better, but they're both honestly about the same
Exact opposite experiences from the stigma for both
Wow !!!!! I am so happy I found your channel. I am on search for a good community college. And I agree 100% about the diversity in experience in CC. I lost my mother when I was 12 due to cancer and just about 7 months ago I lost my father due to covid 19. So I come in the list of people with on budget trying to do better for themselves. With so much to struggle with in life ahead as well I can’t imagine having tons of debt to pay for just getting good education. I really don’t believe that to live a great life you need to go to a good 4 year university but do what you can easily get to earn a better life. And I guess it’s better to study with people of different ages, experience and struggles, rather than a bunch of polished kids.
I love how community colleges promote love for education and opportunities rather tons and tons of increasing tuitions fees.
Very sensible and well-thought out video.
Excellent video. Well said and well presented. Keep up the great Work!
I am going to community college this fall after I took a year off since high school to work, and I am slightly nervous but I've taken campus tours and I love it so much. This video helped me beyond belief for reducing my anxiety to start. Thank you for making this and helping me! My sister finished community and is now in university, so she also will be a big help along with a few of my aunts who did the same program as me. I'm glad to have found this video and am thankful to have family to help as well!
That's awesome to hear! I know you'll do great
I was also class of 2017 and took a year off to work and try to figure out some things. In difference from you, I haven’t had anyone in my family attend to college before, so I’m most likely to be the first one. I have to admit that I’m sill scared and it terrifies me to not have someone guide me, but I know that the sacrifice will be worth it. This video has also helped me to take some of that pressure off my chest. I hope that this new experience makes a positive impact on our lives and that our anxiety won’t be an obstacle.
Pat Barajas I hope the same thing. College isn't a small thing and to go through it with no previous family experience is really brave of you. I am going to college in the original area I am from, but am still living with my parents in the town I've been in for five years. I'm excited to get back to my roots and experience meeting new people and new changes. We should talk more :)
Nicol Erickson I feel like you and I have so much in common. I’m also living with my parents as well and today my mom asked me if I was going back to school, which I told her how odd it was that just last night I made the decision to go back. I’m also looking forward to meeting new people and starting friendships since all my high school fiends are now complete strangers😕. Did you mean us two? Because I’d be more than glad to become friends and go through this journey together. If you’d like to add me on Snapchat, I’m very active there. @Pat_floresz
Pat Barajas Haha I did mean us two :) I would love to become friends on snapchat. It was a really brave thing for you to tell your mom that. All in all, I think you made the right choice and I'm personally proud of you. Going through the journey actually with someone by my side would be great! I also added you on Instagram.
As someone learning more about Community Colleges and American Education, I learned a ton just from watching this video. Thank you so much for putting it together.
Hey, confused European here ! Great video. I can't imagine paying so much money for higher education and since I've heard about CC I couldn't understand why people didn't want to go there. Thank you for explaining. It sucks people have to go in debt to afford college in some countries...
I don't know how to thank you tbh
My current situation is very similar to yours so listening to your talk really made me feel better
What an amazingly helpful video! Thank you for making this!
This video was extremely well done and very helpful!
I am completing community college during high school!
Is that legal? Are there any requirements to get there?
Iam Cleaver as far as I know, you can dual enroll with your local community college. It is very legal and it is a good option for some people depending on your preferences
Yes!! And there are also more and more early college high schools popping up that make this is an extremely realistic path. Good for you!
Thank you for sharing. Lot of information
One thing about attending a community college. Get your degree in Liberal Arts. This way all your credits would be accepted by the 4 Year college or university.
Ouida super helpful
Ouida but I want to get a degree in finance but will probably need to go through a community college. Shouldn’t I get a degree in business at community college before transferring to a 4 year?
@@JoeBidenFanclub99 Not Ouida but typically you would want to get an associate's degree in the following (arts, science, and engineering) to make the transfer to a 4 year. For a business degree, just get an AA degree. Community college just focuses on the gen eds any way. Take some business courses like micro and macro econ, accounting, Calculus, etc at the community level as well.
I hope this helps.
This is an important point to make. I got an AFA in creative writing which I had to take a Capstone course for but those credits didnt transfer to the 4-year university I went to. With that said, a silver lining was that some of the required classes for my BA were completed via transfer credits from classes I took at CC (ex: I took "Play and Screenwriting" at CC and that counted as a transfer credit for "Intro to Screenwriting" at the 4-year school). My advice to students out there is to plan ahead for these types of things because you can save lots of time and money if you plan ahead a little bit. If youre at CC with the goal to get a Bachelor's degree after, be cognizant of what classes you need for the four year program you want, and take the classes at your CC that will knock out the most classes for the four year program.
@@brandontruong3110 does an associates in science allow you to transfer into an engineering university after the 2 years of community college?
Very good video, looking for helpful tips for a recent high school grad that doesn't know what to do. This is one option apart from the Military or the reserves.
Thank you so much this was an amazing video so informative.
Thanks TGUM! This helped me make my decision to go back to school.
Congratulations! You'll do awesome!
I'm someone who didn't pay much attention at my grades because I was busy reading other books, gaining knowledge on topics not related to my studies, and I wanted to help people live better lives. Unfortunately, my grades got super bad and I have a very low GPA (a GPA that won't get me into a good college). I'm not even financially strong enough to attend a four year college. I'm a senior in high school and I will graduate in June 2021. I have been thinking of joining a community college so that after two years I can transfer to a four year college. In the meantime as a community college student I can continue working for others and even get a part-time job to pay my bills. If by any chance I fall short of money, I might have to work 8 hours. When I realized my GPA was very low I lost hope in myself but then I realized that I can still get a college degree if I attend a community college first.
Wish me luck and thank you! I’m at good hands with Community School
I am happy for this video. Thank you
Great videoo! Thank you for your wisdom.
I enjoyed your video
I personally do t find the stereotypical college experience all that appealing. I think I would have enjoyed a community college much better and had more fun knowing I could have a life outside of college as well. Now I am in a small vocational school and I think it’s the best decision I’ve made so far
i want to take a gap year and then go to community college because i am TERRIFIED of student loan debt, but my school sort of has a stigma against CCs :( i know i shouldn’t care what others think but i don’t want my friends to think i just couldn’t get accepted to a 4 year. thank you for this video, hopefully this will give me the confidence to follow my own path
Your video is excellent and you definitely know what you are talking about.
The Bowtie Professor!
Loved tgis video. Thank youu
Very insightful comment, " the student makes the school." Smart students will do well no matter what school they go to. However, in the ivy league schools there is higher concentration of very smart students and being around these people helps improve your individual performance.
Hey! Im an international student doing my A levels in Psychology and Economics (CIE) and was wondering if a community collage would be a good option for me AND what are the grade requirements (this confuses me the most and as most of the websites of community collages dont have it clearly written on their website)
thanks for this video. answered so many questions that I had and now I feel like going to community college and then transferimg is the best choice for me. thank you👍💯
Thanks for the kind works Sergio! I'm so happy to hear that you found this helpful
Thank you so much!
You're welcome! Than you so much for watching.
Amazing Video!!!! Thank You!!!!
Thank you for the info.
My mom went to a cc for a year then dropped out bc she couldn't afford it. She wasn't broke enough to get gov help or financial and she didn't have enough money to pay for it herself. Then 20 years later after she saved up enough she went back to a different cc which I now attend and finished school and she went to nursing school bc it was the quickest easiest route for us to get money. My dad was a hs drop out who joined the army, got hurt and then had to just work to figure stuff out. I hope he gets to go to college 1 day
thank you so much for this
This video was well made and very helpful! I've been debating on what I want to do and more recently I'm thinking of going into a Soc degree through college, and I'm thinking that the local Community college in my area, which is Scott Community College in Bettendorf, Iowa, would be my first college, I would like to go to a state university but a-lot of them are way too far away, like from an hour to 3 hours, and there is a University in my area of the Quad Cities (Which by-the-way is a region of five cities in Southeastern Iowa and Northwestern Illinois) but that's a Liberal Arts college and it's cost about like you said in the video about LA Colleges they're overpriced, for the case of this particular college which is St. Ambrose University, cost about a-bit over 30,000 dollars. So I'm hoping once I get into Scott I might work hard to get a 3.0, somewhere in-between that and a 4.0 GPA to earned a scholarship. I've recently graduated from High School and right now I'm still unemployed but that might not be a problem if this one running candidate for Senator of my state (Iowa) get elected, she's a supporter of community colleges and she will makes them debt-free in our state, which will be very fortunate for me! But I'm still hoping to get employment just in case that doesn't happened, and saved up a-lot of money for my potential college. One more thing, what did you Majored in? That was another thing that I had in mind other than the fact I actually loved this video and enjoyed listening to all the stuff I need to know about attending a community college before I go to one, and you bring up a-lot of very good points! Thank you for the video!
Everything on this video is so true. I can’t afford to pay a four year university so was thinking about attending a community college but am scared that I will not get the same education or that it would be a bad place
What a useful video thank you
Can I do community college for 1-2 year and transfer and do the rest of my 4 year education at a university?
Hi! Great question! In the U.S., you can't get a 4 year degree from a community college - you can only get an associate's degree, which is equivalent to about the first two years of a Bachelor's. Most people (including myself!) go to a community college for the first two years, then transfer to a university for the last two years of our Bachelor's degree. Hope that helped and thanks for watching!
@@TheGrownUpMillennial thank you for the explanation. Love that you did this video
You can know get a four year degree at a Community College .
@@michaelargenta3856 no u can't. u can only get an AA.
I'm a father of two girls and want to give them a better life tomorrow. Thanks for this video, my decision-making is much easy now on where to go. my question is after is two years of Associate at a community college, do you need to do another four years at a university or an Ivy School?
I plan on going to community college because of my IEP and since you said that you get one on one is good for me cuz I ask questions a lot
Awesome! I do want to say that one on one is not always guaranteed, but it's much much more likely at a community college because class sizes are smaller and teachers are not doing research, so they usually have more time to focus on teaching.
I'm a British student who is looking for a scholarship in the states to play soccer. I have been advised to do 2 years at a junior college then do 2 years at a big college. What do you think i should do ?
Me attending a community college it was a way for me to know some people in my community I've met some people just like me who came straight from high school examples including my boyfriend and some of my best friends, I meet some members of the millitary or who are vets through a club I'm apart of and one of the students in one of my classes is older and had done welding work for most of his life
I'm a junior in highschool and I think I'm pretty sure to study stock markets and some form of real estate career like flipping houses or something like that. I would like to go to a 4 year university, but I don't think it's for me, I'm usually a decent student at school no overracher or anything. So that's why im thinking of community college since it's more diverse and is more affordable.
Same I’m not an overreaching or anything, community college help me save lots of money and there is so many programs. But I feel like getting at least an associate, since I want to get a job soon and get more experience, I don’t wanna be in debt. Everyone is different though!
Love the video!
Wow great video!
School doesn't make student, student make school. Its so real. I loved it.
My school never discouraged any kids from cc or university. Most my class went to 1 of 2 different community colleges tho.
Thanks for making this video. I’m going to CC this fall and I’m feeling really nervous about it, mostly because I wonder if it was the right choice. Its hard when everyone else is commuting to colleges and I’m just going to CC.
It was very helpful. Thanks.
I would like to ask you How to select a community college in case of International Student.
Can you up-load some information about that.
I live in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Great video
I’m going to that community collage
Thanks for this amazing video!!! But I wanna ask you more. What should I do if I don't wanna go at University after community college, and it worth it? I wanna start my own business while studying. And I think that University is unneeded
Great question! If you want to start your own business and it doesn't need a university education, then I say go for it. University can open a lot of doors, but going without a plan or graduating with a bunch of debt can close a lot of doors too. University isn't the only way to get an education or build important skills, so make the choice that makes sense for you as long as you're flexible, adaptable, and smart with your money. Good luck!
Kate Holovko I want to start my business while in school and then not transfer so I can put my full energy in my business. So I think you have a smart idea lol
Great video 😊
I totally agree!
Thanks! And thanks for watching!
I'm convinced that the knowledge gained is the same at every institution, but I've been completely unsuccessful convincing other CZcams viewers.😢
Watching from the Philippines.
Realization: if I were American, younger, and were fresh out of high school, i wouldve preferred going to a community college rather than a state u or even an ivy league school.
Sana may ganitong sistema sa Pilipinas no?
You are one of the COC? Awesome!!!
Can you do a video about community college for international students ?
Cute and smart. Thanks for the great video 🤘🏼
thank you
I have done my Bachelor degree. But I would like to work Technical work so can I pursue some course in community college? My major doubt is already I've done my Under graduate. So again can I pursue Associate degree in community college?
Is there still the feel of being at college while at cc?
Could you please tell me if I can lends from the bank if I don't have all the cost there or maybe pay with installment work and study? Because my college says doesn't accepting installment it want cash and pay all the coast only
The 3 tracks of Community College.
1. Transferring to a 4 year. Your task is CLEAR. TAKE TRANSFER UNITS ONLY, GET A's and B's ONLY.
2. You just want an AA degree. Take the required classes for that program... TRY To get one or two CAREER CERTIFICATES too. GET GOOD GRADES.
3. >> CAREER CERTIFICATE ONLY
over half my senior class attended community college to save money. and the majority of these kids went to 1 of 2 colleges which r actually nice schools. even the smart kids went to a cc including our salutatorian. I always knew id either go straight to my dream university or to this 1 specific cc. I ended up going to a big satellite campus of that cc and then ill transfer. so ill get to stay home and work then move out instead of moving into the cc dorms in the middle of no where. the cc I go to isn't even my local cc. I hate my local cc. even tho 1 of its satellite campuses is across the road from my house and next door to my lil bros high school. Id rather wake up at 7am, take my brother to school next door to that cc, then commute 30 minutes away for school than attend there
Where can you go after community college if you liked smaller size classes and such?
Great question! To start, upper division classes are generally smaller than lower division classes as students specialize, so you'll have few (if any) of those notorious 400-students-in-a-stadium type classes if you transfer to a state university for your junior and senior years. You can also look to transfer to a state university with a smaller body. I personally recommend going in-state, as it is cheaper than going out of state, but there are regional agreements that may let you go out of state fairly cheaply and you can select a state with smaller universities. For example, since CA is so large, our universities are pretty populous, but I had the option to go to schools in Nevada and Utah that were smaller and would've had smaller class sizes for only a little bit more money than their in-state tuition through the Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) for students on the West Coast. There are similar set ups for the South, Midwest, and New England. Hope that helps - thanks for watching!
All high school kids want to go to designer colleges like Yale but those colleges are expensive like Nike or Adidas. They are not worth your time if you don’t have the money. Collage is College just like how shoes are shoes. Colleges are all the same , the name on it sets them apart.
Who said i wanted to go to Yale?
@@cameronh3260 Who said anything about what you want?

If we go to community college for 2 years than transfer to university do we have to attend more 4 years or only 2 more years 4 can you please respond really need help
It's 2 years at community college and 2 years at university :)
As long as you make sure your courses such as prerequisites at community college are the exact courses that the universities accept. Personally in my experience try to get in contact with advisors/admissions offices at the university you want to transfer to as they’ll have all the information you’ll need to make sure you’re not taking classes you don’t need or isn’t accepted where you want to transfer.
How is computer software or application developer program in community college in Columbus
appreciate it
I really think CC is the best option for me but i only have one concern, since it is easier than a four year college, does that cause any issues when transferring in terms of the rigor?
Great question! I think that is a risk, but has a lot to do with how you approach CC. Some people will slack off in CC because they perceive it to be easier and then have a very hard time transitioning. I didn't have any transition issues academically because while in CC, I took it very seriously - I sought out harder courses (honors program, etc.), developed and maintained my study skills, took more classes than required, joined extracurriculars, etc. So when I transferred, I had all the skills and experience I needed to easily jump into my upper division classes. In other words, if you seek out a rigorous CC experience, you can find it and I think that's great preparation for transferring. Thanks for watching!
The Grown Up Millennial that’s very true, thank you for responding so fast, this is the first video i’ve watched by you and i really like your approach and how insightful everything was, i subscribed right after the video :)
The Grown Up Millennial also was it difficult socially? i tend to be a shy person and find it tough to make close friends, i fear that it’ll be tough to find a group if i come in the third year while everyone has already been there for two
@@kiannafraga7209 Check out my recent video on On Campus vs Off Campus, where I talk about this a fair amount. It can be a little bit more difficult, but on the other hand, there are a bunch of other transfer students who feel the same way! And college can be lonely for anyone. The best advice I can offer is to join a club or two - this is how I met my closest friends in college and are the folks I still talk to 4-6 years later.
I have a question ? After 2 years community college is it then another 2 years at a university so 4 years in total ?
Yup!
Community college is the way to go for most people IMO.
Awesome
Thank u for this
If community college is like $2,000-$3,000 a year....you won't need loans, just save up a few months
Cameron Harper I Pay $30 a year it’s pretty much free
@@osieldeangel5421 i looked up the cost of the community college where i live and it is $800 per semester....that is $1600 per year and with books and other materials you will need it is like ~$2500-3000....but if you get any decent amount of college financial aid it will be super cheap....im a senior this year so i am planning to do 2 yeara at CC than transfer to a 4 year university
Cameron Harper I’m in this program called EOP&S and they pay for my books and everything i graduated high school a year ago and community college is honesty easy and fun if you have friends in classes
Its just not as fun. Nobody talks to each other or hang out in community college
I'm sorry to hear you had that experience! I found my community college to be much more social than my university, but I was also part of a couple of clubs.
It’s mainly about getting a career bud
there's major w only 2 years and done?
For international student do you think is a good idea to go to a community college.when you apply to a community college and than you want to transfer to at university can you start the second year at uni or you have to start from the first. What I would like to know if you start in a community college for 1 year how many years you have to attend the uni other three or four?Thanks deb
Hi Deborah - great questions! I actually had several international friends while attending community college, because it was MUCH cheaper than going straight to a university for them as well. Many states have programs where you can take two years at a community college and then transfer as a third year. Or you can take a few community college classes and you will get credit at a university, but you will have to start as a first year and not all the classes will transfer. Generally, I think the transfer program is better because the schools have agreements and you will know exactly which classes transfer and which do not (and you save much more money!). Thanks for watching!
where did you transfer to after you done with COC?
I transferred to the University of California, San Diego :)
@Steven Lee UCLA is a "below quality" school?
The Grown Up Millennial Hi I want to know that I want to be a physiotherapist can I apply for physical therapy degree after a community college .
I just got the news that my Associates of math and science will not trandfe to any UC. I'm speechless. Be careful at CC's. They give you the run around and u wns up going to several years longer than you need to be
I'm so sorry to hear that! :( Like I said in the video, there's usually less resources at CCs, including counselors that are familiar with transfer requirements. I hope it doesn't take too long to get your other classes and transfer. Good luck and thank you for watching!
I would get a lawyer and sue the creap out of them -- ASAP...
Community college is a great option. Save your money!
Is it true that the first year of community college is free ?
I'm not sure about that. I know Obama suggested it, but I don't remember if it passed. Costs of community college will vary state to state but its almost always cheaper than a four year university and there is still financial aid available at public community colleges.
Jose Zaragoza in MD it can be but based on family income. So only a few will be granted.
No Brain Ghoul for some of them yes
After studying community college in india, a student got govt. Job
Just imagine if these people stigmatizing Community Colleges FInd Out That Wozniak attended Community College and trasferred after two years to Berkeley's ECE Program.
Wait do some community colleges have campuses
Yes they do! I would say most community colleges have campuses. What I'm primarily referencing are public community colleges, which almost all have campuses, not private for-profit colleges like Phoenix University which may be online. However, lots of community colleges offer online classes or programs if it's difficult to get to campus :)
Good god
