Community college ostensibly for people who don’t have a good track record from High School, but is often advertised as the cheap, local option for people who don’t want to feel bad about having to go.

I did in fact try community college and it’s really just high school material with smaller text. I even took it in parallel with an edX equivalent and the material wasn’t even close to each other. The idea that CC is suppose to replace the first 2 years at a real college is terrifying and reinforces how much of the professional word is theater.

If you do any number of years at a community college, you should be able to apply as a freshman to a real college if you want.

    Wtf wouldn’t you transfer credits if you could?

    That’s just a dumb waste of money and time.

      He wants to be a freshman again. It’s a way to make him be a freshman. Not saying it’s a good idea, not sure why you’d want to be a freshman again either though
