[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't want my child going to community college, because some kids get "stuck" in that limbo. Living at home, working part-time or full-time, hanging with friends from high school who didn't go away to college - school can take a backseat. And it's just not the same experience as going away to school for 4 years, living independently, not having mom/dad around. I want the full college experience to be her first priority for 4 years, like it was for me. I understand if CC to University works better for some families, especially financially.[/quote] This is especially true at schools where building relationships is important, like UVA and maybe W&M. You are already at a disadvantage if your arrive on campus as a junior when everyone else has been making contacts for two years already.[/quote]
