    Unfortunately nobody wants to go a giant single structure college ala Highschool+, aka Community College. They want all the extra stuff.

    • I did as close to that as I could, going to community then transferring to a 4 year. The problem is deeper than people wanting extra stuff, part of the problem is that nobody respects community college degrees, and they’re usually 2 year programs.

        Definitely. I started out at a private 4 year, then transferred to the community college back home. I always heard the school had a shaky reputation, but my experience here has been a thousand times better than the private university. (Not to say it’s for everyone, but it’s absolutely a better fit for me). But if I do decide to go for a BA, it’ll have to be at another school, cause they don’t offer any here.

        • Yeah, it was more or less the same experience for me. My community college was the same quality teaching (and in some aspects it was better). Which just makes it infuriating that 4 year community college programs aren’t really an option.
