Talk to the university that you want to graduate from. Ask then what community college has a good credit transfer. Some university will not recognize the credit for the classes that you took and you will have to retake the classes.

I got turned down from the university that I applied for out of high school. They told me about the community college that I attended and then transferred the the university and then graduated from. The credit hours transferred.

I had no regrets going to a community college and on to a university. Besides it is a lot cheaper at the community college.

good luck.

It’s going out and experiencing new things. Meeting new people. Going to new places. It’s all about being more independent. If you’re living on campus, then you have a chance to experience living on your own. Buying your own food. Staying up as late as you want. No parents to nag you. Even if you live with your parents while attending college, you still get to experience more freedom of going to classes morning, afternoon, or night.

Expect more responsibilities. It’s not just the first two years. It’s your whole college career that will totally be a new experience for you. People just say the first two years is a different experience because that’s when you start getting use to all the change that’s happening in your life.

Financially, community college is a good choice, depending on what you want to do. But I would recommend going for that University experience. Community college just feels like high school, you don’t get a chance to get that real “new experience.”

Talk to an advisor at school.

True, people make their friends primarily in the first two years and also become attached to their school because of the life, their friends and other activities that they get involved in, but it isn’t anything that you can’t do in your third year.

Transferring isn’t a problem and you will not miss out on anything that will really matter in the future. Do what you need to do and go where you feel you best fit. Most importantly, study and bust your butt to do a good job. If you do that, I promise everything else will fall in line.

Good luck!
