But this is for college tuition, not community college tuition, and California is very much the outlier. Also, this focuses on particular areas of need for Walmart:
> Walmart will pay only for degrees in business and supply-chain management because those areas of study “will be relevant across the industry and for future work opportunities,” according to spokeswoman Erica Jones.
They also cover books and supplies, which I imagine would be way more expensive without a single standardized curriculum across all of their employees.
- lsc 8y agoI think community college in California is the best chance working adults have of getting into prestigious schools. My understanding is that you have a significantly better chance of getting into an undergrad program at Berkeley from community college than even the better California state colleges. Really, the options for working adults are mostly geared towards the remedial. Community college is one of the few options available to someone like me to get back on the prestigious school track.
