Say you were going to a private four year that cost $35,000/yr. Wouldn't you rather pay less than a third of that the first two years before transferring?     A lot of community colleges have two year plans if you intend to transfer so that you complete all the requirements. maybe to like a state school, but not much more than that Nope. At least not in Minnesota, anyway. I was going to do two years at a CC, then transfer to University of St Thomas (a private uni). I would have been able to get all the requirements except maybe one religious studies class that was specific to UST. Unfortunately I had to drop out due to health issues, but transferring is what I would have done if shit didn't happen. ive never even heard of that school Anonymous Posted at 10:57 am on May 12, 2008 Quote: from latin muscle at 10:51 am on May 12, 2008 Quote: from Anonymous at 10:48 am on May 12, 2008 why do people on here act like CCs are so great? i feel like theyre just bitter they didnt get into a real school :(. i mean sure, if you dropped out then went on to one its totally better than nothing, but thats all. better than nothing.    sorry kids, i will make more money than you! and im smarter, have more connections.    (anon to avoid the hate pms) Not only that, but family connections are great. :) So when your relatives own a big business, sometimes you feel like not even going to school knowing you will be set to go. ah i wish i had family connections! i have to work for all my connections, it blows Innuendo Girl Posted at 10:57 am on May 12, 2008 Quote: from Anonymous at 12:54 pm on May 12, 2008 Quote: from Innuendo Girl at 10:53 am on May 12, 2008 CCs are good for saving money before transferring to a four year university.

Community Colleges provide great preliminary educations for a lot of people. so they have less student loans than us full time university kids.    get over yourself. a degree is a degree, no one cares where it came from. yes, they do. and better schools provide better networking and connections not if you want to be a teacher. what connections do you need? or an accountant? no one cares. if you want to go on wall street, or right history books or be a mover and a shaker sure. but those people arent attending the average community college anyways..and can afford a 4 year university.
