[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Community college for the first two years and a part-time job? So you can see how he handles the workload before committing, and if he does well in community college he can transfer to a good state school and finish the degree there.[/quote] This. Look at good CCs where many credits will transfer to the state university. Getting in as a transfer with good grades from CC may be easier as well since by then DC will have a defined major and proven capable of college level work. The benefit of CC is also smaller classes for 101 levels than a big school (not a small LAC obviously). A good goal now is to get out of college with a marketable skill and as little debt as possible which will out DC above his/her peers in flexibility in the job marketplace. [/quote]
