College questions..?


Asked by krunkee1
So I'm wondering how the the system really works.. because I'm not in college yet and I'm totally clueless. I'm aiming for a bachelors degree when I go to college.. Do you take two years of community college to obtain an Associate's degree and then another 3-5 years to get a bachelors at a normal college? Clarification will be much appreciated.

Hi. You can go about it exactly as you said, go to a community college first, get your A.A, transfer those credits to a 4 year college and get your Bachelors. It would be cheaper that way. OR, you can start at a 4 year university and straight obtain your bachelors degree. OR You can go to a For-Profit university like DeVry or UOP and finish a 4 year degree in approximately 2+ years. I hope this helps.
