To check exam results with a marksheet, follow these steps:
I applied over a year ago and didn’t activate my account during the 48 hour period and I was wondering if there were any other steps I could take to activating it or would I have put in a new application
Hey all,
Question:
If I receive financial aid for my classes , if i drop a class and it shows that I owe some of that back, other than affecting my future financial aid standing what happens?
I can't afford to pay it right now, but I don't know if they report that to credit bureaus or if it only affects financial aid?
Especially remote, nyc, accessible to audit
For example mixed schools for many interests, not necessarily needing be taught interdisciplinarily? Like academia/ed placement?
For example I go to a community college and get all the credits needed to transfer but I decide not to and just go in to the work force first. If I wanted to would I be able to transfer even after working for a few years?

this is kind of complicated but i'm gonna try my best to keep it short: i'm going to DVC and aiming to be out of there in a year as i have enough AP credits to do so. my one concern is that i have to take calc1 and calc 2 bc i'm a business major. i am TERRIBLE at math, and i have barely any experience with it. due to moving to another country and then covid, i barely learned alg 1, i did alg 2 and precalc online asynchronously thru the summer and barely learned it because i found all the answers online (i know i know). anyways, i REALLY don't want to stay an extra year at CC and i really wanna transfer to UCLA. i found a calc 1 course to do over the summer online, should i do it?? or is it a complete gone case. again i NEED to graduate in a year. please feel free to ask questions because i'm sure this post wasn't the most clear
I got accepted into CSUSM as a high school senior, but i want to do two years at a CC then transfer instead to save money. The acceptance rate for CSUSM is over 90%, but for transfer students its 50%. Is it a good idea to do 2 years of CC? Or should I just go straight to CSU?
I have taken a gap year after my high school where I was preparing for competitive exams. I have been unable to score enough rank to get into a good college here in my country and I discovered community colleges recently.
I would be interested in going to a college like De Anza or Orange coast but I wanna be sure if I can still apply to them and what would be the deadlines.
What would be the chances of acceptance and also if anyone has attended a CC please mention your experience with transfer program.
Guys, is it too late to apply for Community college? I want to apply for fall 2023 yet idk if I still can
I am trying to transfer to Berkeley EECS after two years. I think I won't go wrong with either choice. Please give me some tips on which to choose. I heard that rent is higher in Cupertino than Pleasant Hill and that at De anza, CS is better taught than at DVC.
i am going to complete my associates degree on thursday and graduation is on friday. should i attend? i feel weird because it’s frowned down upon as a rather small accomplishment but i’m also proud and feel like i should do it!
Architecture Transfer from ACC to UT Austin
I'm going to community college to persue Architecture and plan on transferring to a 4-year university after 2 years at CC. I would love to go to UT Austin, but I've heard they don't accept community college transfers. On the UT website website, they say you should apply to a different major, then do an internal transfer. I wouldn't be willing to do that. Would anyone who went to community college for architecture have advice for me? Is it really impossible to get in as a transfer student? What other options would you guys suggest? Any piece of advice would be appreciated!
I am in college now and I know that if I were to transfer to another 4 year institution I’d need to have at least a 2.0 gpa. Due to me being a pretty lousy student and some issues in my interpersonal relationships and life I did very poorly this semester. I was under the impression that I’d be able to take classes at a community college to raise my gpa, but I’m not even sure if a community college would accept me. Does anybody have any knowledge abt this or have been in a similar situation?
I am going to a community college and I'm trying to figure out or decide between Software Development Technology, Software Development and Programing Certificate of Achievement, or Mechatronics Certificate of Achievement.
What I want to know is if the degree is worth getting over the certificate like if jobs are more likely to pick degrees over certificates.
etc.
Why did they decide to take out the “community” from the colleges? CT is very diverse in its cities and towns. How will it better serve all those different places by homogenizing the education system?
I need help finding a community college that offers a music theory 1 course online. I’m in California and I was just wondering if anyone here can find anything about it.
I go to college next year, and I was thinking about doing two years of in-state, and then transferring to an out of state college. Will my credits transfer? Is it a good idea?
so like im in cc and my mum sent me a news article and basically its about how a student in cc transferred to csu and her credits could not be transferred over. now im kinda worried, how common are these type of situations? i plan on transferring to a uc but i dont wanna spend more time and money than i should
I just committed to a 4-year university but I did not really want to go my parents made me. I am now wondering if I can cancel my admission and go to a CC to potentially get into a better school. I was just wondering if it looks bad that I enrolled but dropped out.
hello! i’m thinking of taking calc 2 and 3 over the summer at a CC online. my local institutions don’t offer these classes and since i’m from a US territory i’m basically an out of state resident everywhere. if you guys have any affordable online college that offers an earlier session for calc 2 and a later session for calc 3, please let me know! thank you!
I just registered for college, I honestly don’t know what am doing. But this sounds like a really dumb question and was wondering if y’all can answer this. If you go to a 2 year community college does that me you can only stay at the college for 2 years? Or can you go to that 2 year community college and stay attending there for more than 2 years? I know this sounds dumb but some insight could really help me. I sincerely thank you for all the information I can get.
I’m a US citizen who studied abroad and did my GCE A-Levels which you can apparently be given college credits for (makes sense cuz A levels are the equivalent of AP or dual highschool courses if I’m not wrong so) Do you think it’s possible for me to do cc only for a year, complete pre-req courses and then transfer to a good uni and do the remaining 3 years of my bachelors degree?
I signed up for online math class but for some reason I couldn't keep up the pace with all the assignments quizzes and exams. I personally struggled with math class because it's very hard to understand and get the concept in my head. Maybe math for some people come easy as they're interested and naturally good at it. But It was part of pre reqs and I failed my first class and I don't know what the consequences are. I don't how community college works but I do know that maintaing a high GPA and completing prereqs on time would be helpful. Its been three years but I still haven't completed pre reqs for radiography program. Ever since the conversation with my advisor, things just fell off. I lost the motive and desire to pursue into this field because I heard it's very competitive program and only 20 students per year get accepted. I don't know my backup plan or what certificate to get. Working in retail jobs and fast foods doesn't sound like my future will be bright. I want to change my life and become something in life. I heard many people take short courses to obtain certification to get jobs. I just feel stuck and hopeless helpless like whom to contact or reach out. It feels very overwhelming
Hello, do you know of any community colleges offering MATLAB courses over the summer? What about Autodesk Inventor courses? Thanks?
I'm 18 yrs old I graduated in 2022 and have basically been meandering about life for a solid year. I did poorly in highschool and it just sucked so i knew i wouldn't be able to directly apply to a 4 year. How do I make the best of my community college experience? I am planning on applying and working on an emt certification. My eventual goal is to a 4 year, major in molec bio, and proceed to get a masters. I am very passionate about the sciences and arts but im in a very down place right now ngl. If anybody can give me some advice or guidance on the transfer, application process, how to avoid shitty counselers, and minimize my time in cc that would be great thank you. Any note of encouragement is nice too lol.(forgive my typos)
