What Are the Advantages of Going to Community College?


If You Plan to Go on to a Four-Year University:

  • Community Colleges- offer a financial advantage, many cost less than two thousand dollars each semester to attend full time.
  • Flexible Schedule- if  you plan to work, community colleges offer far more night classes than other universities
  • Explore Major Options- Classes cost less, so you will have the opportunity to explore interests that you might not have otherwise pursued.
  • Smaller Classes- Many classes have between 25-35 students
  • Qualified Professors- Many accomplished instructors teach part-time at community schools
  • Transitional- Attending community school gives students the opportunity to earn college credit while taking the time to select the 4-year institution that is right for them.

If You Want to Get a Better Career (Try the CTE Programs):

  • Real-World Ready- Career education students launch their careers faster, with higher starting salaries
  • Tech Ready-You access the latest industry technology, entering a career with more experience and more confidence
  • Workforce Read- Regional industries are driven by educated professionals with hands-on training
  • Future Ready- Secure a more stable future by learning a crucial skill in a fast-growing, recession-proof industry.
