[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who doesn't at least consider CC for the first year is a fool.  Undergraduate education is not worth $200,000-$300,000 that the universities are charging these days.  It's simply not.  [/quote]

You can get a good college education, in 4 year schools, for less than that. Given that the best financial aid goes to freshmen, starting at CC is often not the least expensive choice.  It can be the right choice for some people, but certainly not for "anyone".[/quote]

I agree that you can get your 4 year education for less than that. However, this whole threat started with OP lamenting that her kid isn’t getting accepted despite a fairly good GPA which tells me he applied to schools that cost about what I said.

Also, I agree that CC is not for everyone. I was more responding to people who never even consider it.[/quote]

I’m the OP and respectfully, wtf are you talking about? My kid is a junior. He hasn’t applied anywhere. As I said in the original post, we are considering CC for a number of reasons. I never said what they are. [/quote]

My apologies (sincere). DCUM fatigue is real. I was confusing your thread which I totally agree with with another one where a parent was lamenting about her son not getting into any schools he applied to. The mistake is on me. [/quote]

I'm OP. It's all good. I wasn't sure if you were trolling or mistaken. Glad to hear it's just the latter. DCUM fatigue is indeed real. I'm logging off and headed to bed now. :)[/quote]
