Community College or University?!?


Asked by watsont6
I'm a senior in high school from south jersey planning to study Nursing in college.I was recently accepted to Rutgers New Brunswick (my first choice university). I'm still not sure about going away to a university or saving my money by starting off at community college. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks!

2 out of my 3 kids started with community colleges transferring to universities. The third went to a private college ($$) - all 3 now have great jobs. If money is an issue, I definitely recommend starting at a community college - just check into making sure all your classes are credit acceptable at the university BEFORE you pay to take that class! Good Luck!
