[quote=Anonymous]OP, my opinion may differ from many here on DCUM because I'm a transplant to DC and wasn't raised in the competitive HS/college atmosphere so prevalent around here. I think option 3 sounds like a really wise choice, especially in this current situation. The financial savings is considerable ($25K is a lot of money to most of us!!) and you've clearly proven you have a good deal of self-motivation, which is great. I have several good friends who went the Associates route and then transferred to finish up their degrees who have done very well for themselves. And given you're interested in Poli Sci and NOVA can get you a good internship, that's another plus for that route. Whatever you prefer, I hope you are able to bring your parents round. I really think it should be your decision. Parents (and I'm one now) can and should advise, but in the end, it's your life. And those of us who went to college 20 years ago did so in a different environment, so our wisdom only goes so far anyway.[/quote]
