Benefits of Community College

January 12, 2012 By Sozo Staff Leave a Comment

Even if you have your heart set on a traditional four-year college or university, community college could still benefit you in a number of ways. Some students, for example, are choosing to delay enrolling in their four-year school of choice in order to earn general education credits at their local community college.

While this is a smart option for many people and could potentially save you thousands of dollars, be sure to check with your four-year school’s requirements for transferring credits. Some colleges and universities only accept transfer credits from specific community colleges, and others only accept community college credits on a case-by-case basis.

Even if you don’t want to delay entering your four-year school, you can still earn credits through your local community college. Many students choose to do so either online or over the summer, but other students choose to supplement their course load at their home school with one or two classes from a community college taken during the regular semester. Again, while this could be a smart move, be sure to look into your school’s specific policies.

Some schools have limits on how far into your education you can transfer credits from a community college, with many schools forbidding community college credit transfers after the end of the Sophomore year. Regardless of how you choose to use it, your local community college could benefit you significantly in terms of cheaper degree credits.
