This. My nephews in California are both doing the CC --> UC/Cal State path. One has already transferred successfully and the other is doing well in CC. Here in VA, some of my son's good friends from HS are doing NVCC. One is set to transfer to JMU for Spring 2024, another just started at VT. Another had some mental health issues and is taking a slower path. There is such a wide variety of types of students at CC that average outcomes are pretty meaningless.[/quote]

I absolutely agree with you regarding the wide variety of students at CC.  I took classes at CC when I high school so that I could graduate early from high school.  My mom's best friend at the time was taking classes at the same time in flower arranging, just for fun.  And a cousin took CC classes to get a certificate in HV/AC and now makes bank.  A statement like "be careful! don't ket your child go to CC-- only a tiny percent of those enrolled in CC end up at a four year school" doesn't tell the whole story-- it may be ture, but it's missing the point.

A LARGE percent of high schoolers go straight to community college in California. This is true at urban schools and affluent suburban schools as well. [/quote]
