I thought Financial aid cut you off after you get your AA?
You're wrong.
When you apply for a graduate program to get a Masters Degree, they will need to see the capacity in which you attended a CC. Once they get your transcripts from a 4 year institution and see two(or however many) years worth of coursework, they will request the supplemental coursework from the previous institutions.
If you had a Masters degree you'd know that.

I did. Two years later I got my bachelor's degree at a university.

if you're in your degree program then you should qualify for financial aid. The only time they would cut you off is if you're taking classes outside your major or not maintaining a satisfactory gpa.First 3 posters were trynna clown me

Also, since it's a cc, how come pell grant isn't enough to cover your expenses?

The Pell does cover my classes at CC. I was under the impression that they cut you off after a certain amount of time.

no pell is good until you receive your bachelors.
Good employers ask for your complete academic history and transcripts when coming out of college or entering associate level positions also.Ok I'm pretty sure he was talking about employers, but
^^^ I believe this is ideal if people didn't do so well in HS.
Don't waste your time at a community college though. 4 years is too much, do a year or two and go to a university/college if you can. One of the reasons is they tend to have more resources than a community college, and you can probably land internships as well.

I thought that 700% only applied if you haven't received your bachelors.

Or if you performed well during your internships they probably won't ask.
I know a guy in the computer science department that didn't perform well at academia, around 2.3 GPA. But he was able to land a few internships and did pretty well in that position (so he claimed) and 3M hired him full-time. I will admit, my first thought was, "they hired you because you're white and fit in with the culture. They wouldn't hire a Black guy with that record", but he probably did do good work in his internship, then I thought, "wtf am I giving this guy leeway for?" I was just going through a range of thoughts when he told me that 2 years ago. Now he is earning $90k.
It used to be like that, they changed it after 2008-09
