[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Community college is free in California. Many, many intelligent kids opt there first because it makes sense and has guaranteed transfer programs. But really, I don't know anyone who's been shut out of all UCs and CSUs they applied to.[/quote] Does CA have academically more-rigorous community colleges to accommodate those high performing students? [/quote] Yes, it has several that are feeders. [/quote] +1 As an example, De Anza and Foothill in the Bay Area are basically extensions of Cupertino HS, Paly, Gunn, etc. I’ve had friends who taught at those and taught at prestigious Bay Area colleges, because the community colleges run year around so some junior professors supplement their income that way. They say there is very little difference in quality of student. [/quote]
