Hey guys! Sorry about the awkward angle, this was my first time filming in my apartment and it was really hard to tell how the camera was positioned. I'm working on finding the optimal position!
Thank you for sharing your experiences about community college! There are not a lot of videos that talk about this so I do really appreciate you making this video. I am a junior at community college rn transferring out to a 4 year. Wish me luck!!
*Basically, she regrets not…* 1. Networking 2. Campus Community Involvement 3. Planning out your education (In Community College) 4. Taking advantage of available Campus Resources
@Erica W Ngoga LAUSD and Community colleges in LA agree that if a student graduates High School with over a certain G.P.A (3.0), he/she qualifies for the Board of Governor (BOG) fee waiver. I graduated with a 3.3 so, I qualified.
I recently became president of a campus club. I meet other presidents at our board meetings and they're definitely a cut above the average cc student. I recommend surrounding yourself with people like that.
I'm starting my first day of community college Wednesday of next week! I really appreciate this video (: I work full time so I figured it's going to be rough getting really involved with the college such as clubs, sports, events, etc. It really disappoints me because in high school, I didnt have much of the school spirit and now I'm the exact opposite (except I haven't started yet)
I have a plan and I need advice, I am currently a junior in high school but I don't want to worry about stressing for paying for college. So I plan to go to a community college for my 2-3 years. while working and saving money for when I go to a university so it's easier to pay. how do you know which classes to take so when you transfer, you can be able to just take the classes you need for the major that you want to take?? is it possible to take those classes in cc??
@@agricolaregs well I am from Michigan and I've lived there most of my life, and i don't know there are al lot of classes that i would like to attend but maybe a university out of state like or MSU, it was always plan after highschool .
Hello, I'm really only familiar with the transfer process in California. I would recommend talking to a college counselor at your high school or setting up a counseling appointment the the community college you would like to attend. They will be the most knowledgeable about what steps you should take.
not me graduating in early May, working full time for like 3 weeks, and starting cc in the beginning of June with 3 classes and a full time job. 👁👄👁 i really am not a social person but, it is for the best that I try too, so I can have some good connections with others and my future professors
That camera angel thoooo! 😂 thank you for the tips! I’m really doing my research to successfully transfer to my desired CSU and I’m trying to cover all my corners and this helped!
Thank you so much! I’m a junior in High School and I’ve been thinking a lot about going to community college for 2 years and then transferring to a state college. How do transfer programs work?
I have BSc and MSc (going for a second MSc), yet hooked to the videos about how US education works. At least Community Colleges have textbooks, during my MSc we didn't use any, only .ppt and lecture notes :) So I sort of attended CC, which is less demanding.
If I attend Community College do I have to do a transfer or do I have the option to complete my duration at Community College and how long will that be?
So let’s say I don’t get accepted to a college after high school because of my gpa and sat. My grades in High school were average, so I didn’t get in. If I apply after community college, what determines wether or not they will accept me after community college?
Crystal Bear, see it as a fresh restart. For example I took high school serious however I was simply not ready for a 4 year. I therefore chose to go to community college. Long story short I really tried and got involved a lot. I got accepted to 4 out of my 5 choices.
Hi! I’m a West Valley student trying to transfer too, can I ask what your GPA was, if you’re willing to share? I don’t quite have a 4.0 and I’m not sure if I should even try applying to UCLA
@@HaileyDollarGoesToCollege When they transfer you to the university after completing 2 years of CC, do you have to pay for the tuitions in the university?
Hi Anamul, sorry but I do not know what the o level is and I am not familiar with the process for international students. If I were you I would contact the admissions department at the CC you want to go to for advice.
Do you feel like cc is better than other colleges that cost a lot, I’m currently 14 and I’m not really that rich and I don’t see myself getting a scholarship even though Ive had straight A s since 7th grade, please tell me your opinion, thank you
I think in your case you should explore the career that may interest you. And see how you can get that career (aka- does it require an associate, bachelor, master, etc). What institutions offer that career, the difficulty in the field, the requirement in getting in the field, etc. Networking can also help- especially if your teacher, parents, etc can offer you to shadow an individual of your desired career. :) Shadowing is like a mini-tour guide of the career you are interested in. Then when you enter high school and your intuitions offer college credit courses, AP class, or IB course. Then give them a try to start off your credit. Though I do recommend to take some college courses when that's available for you. ^ _ ^ Just take your time since you have a long way to go. Just remain open to the opportunity of your future and I'm sure you will know which college will suit your career. c: Good luck Xaimond. c:
Fatema Alatwani I’m also a junior in high school and my teachers recommend going to cc because it just saves a lot of money and you can transfer after if u wanna go to a 4 year university, I’m thinking of going to cc because I slacked a bit in my freshmen and sophomore year so going to cc will give me a blank slate to redo my self and my gpa, this is just my opinion but I hope you get the answers to what you wanna know :)
Karen Arevalo Im in the same situation! Im a junior in hs and my grades are pretty bad- definitely not even close to good enough to the school i want to get into but that’s completely okay. Because in cc you get a completely fresh start and it’s so much easier compared to my hs so i’m really looking forward to grinding and getting that perfect 4.0 gpa :)
Selin me tooo. I’m also a junior in hs & I’m so stressed over my grades :/ I have A’s and B’s but my math & physics grade is killing me. I’m praying that I’m still able to get good scholarships
Community colleges should be privatized, they are losing customers to online private self-education? Since 2010 California CC's have declining enrollment, without taxpayer money many would be bankrupt if not all. Same for the UC/CSU system not sure how they will adjust when the U.S dollar in decline. CC's serve a mix of students- -Remedial classes -4 year transfer -Vocational -Lifelong learners example retired people, people taking classes for fun (no degree, certifications) Wonder if there are examples of private sector community colleges?...
