If you’re in high school and want to go to community don’t think that you don’t need to try as hard in your classes. Still try to get good grades and do ap classes. Your grades still matter. Edit: also if you can take college courses in high school try it. It’s actually better than taking ap classes. I wish I did that. It’s cheaper and you could finish cc in less than two years. Double savings and saves time.
Yeah its good for prosepctive community college students to understand the work load and material is still going to challenge you. However I guess it may also depend on their major. Nonetheless they should try just as hard to get the best grades possible!
Community College is more affordable and easier. But not always. It depends on which community college you go to, which university you transfer to, and the major you are doing. But for me, I started out at a community college and almost my whole degree does not transfer and I had to retake them at my university. And the courses are harder. And for a fact, that happens to a lot of other people I know who transfer as well from other community colleges. This is something to really think about. Because I had to spend more than two years at my university.
@@jimmytran5339 Same. Im majoring in Information Technology and practically all the IT related courses I took have to be "bridged" at most of universities I've applied to
Thank you for posting this 😭😭 i’ve been so stressed abt my future and I always thought that i couldn’t get the same education at a community school than at a uni. You def put my mind at ease
I’ve considered on attending community college after high school for a while. I’m in my freshman year of high school, and the thought of attending university makes me apprehensive .
@@Ad-qt8lx I’m a junior but is community college really worth it? Listen I’m extremely dumb and always fall behind when it comes to school the best grade I can get is a B and I wonder if community college can help me become successful
@@cloroxbleach6039 hell yes going to cc is worth it. U can always transfer to a university later. All im good at is school so i made mostly A’s. However that wasnt enough to help me afford to go to a big university. I didn’t wanna go in debt for some classes i could take anywhere, so i went to a cc. I wouldve been paying $20,000 a year to go to my desired university. Now im only paying $600 a year for cc. At my college u can go there tuition free if u have a 20+ on the act. Depending on what u wanna do, u might not even need to transfer to a cc. Another good thing about community colleges is they r smaller, that means smaller classes. Its basically like high school so if u need help u can just talk to the professor & they’ll actually know your name bc your in a class of 20 lol. Unlike the big universities where theirs 50+ ppl in 1 class. I also commute from my house to 1 of my community colleges satellite campuses so that also cut down the cost. While i might not get the big college experience it is definitely worth it. And u can still become just as successful. Most ppl say college is a scam & it is a lil more expensive than it should be but its really all about how u play your cards.
@@Ad-qt8lx damn thank you I remember I saw a comment of someone saying they went to community college and free out of debt and were like 23 with a whole 2 story house and car
Your amazing for sharing your process in transferring from a community college to a university because not everyone has the best high school advisor that guides a student to pick a community college program that automatically will allow a student to be accepted from a two year college to a four year. That was very smart to use a credit calculator in doing research prior to choosing an academic program with the best curriculum that promotes successful higher learning with a minimum 45 undergraduate credits that all transferred to the University of Maryland. You also mentioned that being at a university vs. community college was more intense. Please take advantage of professor's office hours & you will do great. Blessings👑 Zach🤴🏽🙌🏽 & Ashley👸🏾🙌🏾.
I pray and Hope the Corona will get better or be over with by Time I transfer. Im in a Community College right now and Have one more year to go after this one than I will graduate and be able to transfer to University of Memphis
We’re you able to get in University of Memphis before attending community college? or did finishing community college help you to be able to get into the university?
Luckily I had friends in the area I could attend events with at their schools. But that’s definitely something to consider when choosing between community college and a university
@@janellelives5158 girl I’m with you 100% it’s SUCH a hard decision for us in hs right now. I was just a freshman and now I’m a junior thinking about college. I missed so so much. I wish I could give advice but I’m right there with u. I want to save money but at the same time I hear my mom talk about college and it sounds so fun.
My CC offers first year free if you have a 3.5+ which is AMAZING. I have a 3.7 so I’ll probably be able to get second year pretty cheap too with my test scores. All sounds great and like an obvious choice but I already feel I’ve missed out so much on the high school experience because of covid (I’m a junior) and I don’t Wanna miss anything else. My mom and aunt are telling me I don’t want to miss out on the social experience bc it was the best time of their lives and all that. Can anyone give me some input on whether it’s worth it or not?
I think that’s so great you’re able to save so much money! I’ve been at university for a year now and while it is fun and I’ve met some great people I’ll never regrets my years at CC because I’ll be able to graduate debt free because of the choice I made
College expierence is pretty overhyped, its not anything like what it was for our parents. At least at my small tech school. Depends on what college were talking
@@orisplus3733 thank you for answering ! It’s such a big decision to make. All of my older friends are going to commuter colleges so it’s hard to find an input of someone who actually experiences campus life.
Jesus loves you and died on a cross and rose three days later taking our place and paying our debt (for the wages of sin is death) so you can have eternal life and be forgiven of sin if you repent and pick up your cross and follow him daily
hey ashley, I've been getting A-s on my major classes of CC, this first semester is so tough and i'm getting a little bit anxious about transferring. do you think I can still transfer well this way?
hello can i get an advice ? Im an international student and im planning to join San mateo college for Psychology . Which university should i transfer next ?
Alot of videos I watch on Community College the person always stresses asking for 15 hours even if they try to give you 12 because at the end of the year you won't have enough credits to graduate. Is this true?
can i have some advice about my relationship? i’m graduating hs soon, and idk what’s best for me whether i want to go to community or a 4 yr. i don’t have a dream major or anything and fafsa covered like everything for schools i got into. i’m not the book smartest and i am struggling on deciding
community college!!!!!!! save your money they take the same classes the first two years. after those two years u can transfer to uni and boom u just saved yourself alot of money with little student debt im about to be a senior in hs and community college is the move 100% specially if you don't have a dream major set on your mind and trying to figure your life out like i am.
@@User-cz6jp hey ! I have like the SAME situation she described. Good grades but had to WORK for it. Not sure my major yet. Only thing I have trouble with is the social aspect. I don’t want to miss out on anything else after Covid
When you want to transfer to a 4 yr uni how many classes would you suggest taking each semester in order to transfer within 2 yrs? Also could you go more in dept on transfer agreements in Maryland or in general?
I would take around 5. Most classes have 3 credits each so 15 credits per semester. I did need a few extra courses with 2 credits that I took during the summer semester. My first CC semester I did 6 classes & only had 1-B and 5-A’s and 4 classes the next to give myself a break. From then on out I did 5 classes a semester plus those summer classes. I chose to be a full time student the whole time just to get through it quicker. I’m currently a Junior at University right now August,2021-May 2023 having acquired my associates degree from CC May 17, 2021. Focus on getting good grades. I do not have to pay for my bachelors and half of my masters due to getting no grades below a few B’s in CC. Edit: I had 64 credits that transferred over to certain Universities that followed my CC curriculum. Make sure you tell your advisor you plan on transferring so they may set you up a schedule that’ll transfer smoothly.
@@alexiscordero897 Wow! As crazy as taking that many courses sound, I think it’s an awesome way to go and get through it quickly. More importantly, your grades are amazingly impressive. You mentioned your grades influence tuition? Is that just your institution or all over? I’ve got to look into this. I’m transferring from community college to university with excellent grades and I never knew the benefits. Now, I want to go for it full time and all the way. Thanks.
@@raindanse8466 yes! There’s certain honor societies you can join that provide smaller 1k scholarships and also grants you can apply for. Financial aid covers my full tuition for now. This is my last year as a junior at University and just now having a hard time with 1 class but I’d be able to retake if necessary. You can do it! If the schools send out emails for you to apply for grants/ scholarships etc. DO IT!
@@alexiscordero897 Wow! I’m on an honor society, Phi Theta Kappa. I have no idea how all this works. When Covid hit I did not want to waste time doing nothing so I went to school. After this semester I’m done with AS-T and now preparing for CSULB. I initially only signed up for college to fly my drone with the Drone Lab, now look at me. So strange but cool. What’s the class that is bummin you out? What happens with retake. I’m on pins and needles not to mess up. I never thought I’d go to a University. I’m inspired by you now.
wait im not from the US, but if community college credits fully transfer than what is the trade-off? Is it perhaps time? In the sense not ALL of the credits transfer but those that do, receive full credit?
For me, the trade of is social events. Most community colleges don’t have dorms so u don’t live there. Whereas in university, you HAVE to live there for first two years. That’s their policy for safety or so they say lol. So u get a roommate, obviously parties, sports games, other stuff like that. Community college also has a larger age demographic so it’s not like the majority of ppl are your age. There will be a lot of ppl 30+ so it’s a different environment. A lot more serious. People commute from home, go to class, then leave. Like my mom and all the adults I know talk about college and all the friends and memories they made and it sounds so fun. But I wanna save money too so it’s hard
sis I HAVE QUESTION AND I HOPE YOU WILL ANSWER I have relative in newyork city US and i want to study there and my question is can my relative that live in newyork register me or enroll me one univesity of there and i will pay or give all what the university require like TRANSCRIP OF HIGH SCHOOL AND TOEFL TEST OR SAT AND other requirement and my relative will sponser me there like basic needs and i will cover my fees by part time job yearly at most 20,000 dollars

Depending on what major you’re in i think?

When you go from paying no more than $50 for tuition at the CC to paying $3800 a semester at the 4 year...I miss going to CC tbh 😔

Dont feel pressured into attending a university. Community college is cheaper & it will slowly ease u into the big world.

No. An employer will not care about your AA degree if you have a B.S/B.A.

Is the work load more at a university vs community college or about the same?
It’s about the same! Just depending on your classes and your major
ı live in Turkey. I wanna apply Community College. I have money enough for this. But when I start college there I don't know how to make a living.
Try international student scholarships. It's like study abroad
Please when you transfer to the university, did you start from year 1(afresh)?
Like what age?
This great advice cause I’m going into the military
