You have to be honest about community colleges though. It is not a true substitute for university, it’s just cheaper and often more difficult to get through. So many ppl that have gone to community college in our town have dropped out and given up, or are way behind because they struggle to get the classes they need bc it’s so overpopulated. Add in the fact you’re not getting the full college experience, and the professors kinda suck compared to university professors, you can’t network in the same way because it’s a transitional space for most people, you don’t get personal support from good advisors bc their roster is filled to the brim and constantly changing, all of it kinda sucks. Anyone who makes it out of community college gets a lot of respect from me. I’ve seen most of my peers struggle for years, and many just give up. It sucks that people have to sacrifice the university experience for the cheaper option, even though you will eventually end up at a university, its just not the same.
