[quote=Anonymous]I don’t really understand the stigma. If you are in the cohort that does two years and then transfers into a four year university, who would ever know? Your future employer wouldn’t know. Your graduate school is going to only care about your overall gpa , grades in your major and consider you no differently than others that started as freshman. If you are planning to be a tradesperson or health technician and want a two year AA and certification, this would be the goal anyway. A BA in English from a low or mid ranked 4 year college isn’t going to help you get a job requiring skills and specific certifications. If you want to become a teacher, therapist, nurse, accountant, paralegal, own a small business, go into the arts, non profit work or any of the numerous fields that don’t pay high salaries why wouldn’t you save two years of tuition?
