My 3 years at a CC costed $6k while my 2 years at a UC was $30k (w/ rent $40k).
Only thing you miss out on is more talented peers and a “college experience” which I tried to make the most of at UC but it’s harder by then.
- tayo42 5y agoYou can definitely have the college experience going to cc. unless we have different definitions of it. i had no shortage of parties, drugs, bars, awkward socialness, growing as a person and ability to try new things.
- reducesuffering 5y agoYou can, but the level of ease greatly depends on which CC. For example, at mine, it was a sleepy bedroom suburb with no young person bars for 30 miles. Almost everyone there is living at home and thus the natural tendency for social gatherings to occur is much tougher than something like Boston or NYC.
