It depends on the college. For my first semester I atteneded a community college which had dorms, athletic teams, several clubs...etc. and basically it was very much like a foru year school. I am now attending a newer community college and we don't have dorms, or athletic teams and clubs come and go each semester. It also depends on what you're looking for in a college. You'd have to do your research on community colleges in your area and see what they offer. I would recommed doing a two year degree program at a community college first and then transfering to a four year school, because then you'll have more expereience and you'll also have your freshman/sophmore years of studying out of the way. But that all depends on what sort of degree and field of study you plan on going into. The community college I am currently attending is nothing like the steryotypical extension of high school and most people on campus study very hard. We have a lot of speakers and events and some good clubs which have stood the test of time, it's just the matter of getting involved.
