If you already have your degree from CC under your belt, I would transfer to the 4 year ASAP if that's the move you want to make. You don't want to be there only after wasting time taking a year off or attempting a business. You'll be sitting there with students younger than you who have already interned places during the summer and have jobs already lined up for themselves. Take a little time off and try starting a business only after you're done.

Went in straight to a college where I didn't want to go and regretted it. I should have relocated first, then went to college.

Went to a local CC and worked as a delivery driver. I regret not going to university right off the bat but for an 18 year old whippersnapper with no bills to speak of and boundless energy, that job was :takedat:. I wouldn't trade that era in my life for anything. Black people need to step their tip game up though because when I had to deliver to them I got stiffed well over half the time and no it wasn't just me. Help a young brotha out. :to:

I started out at CC to save thousands. I told myself that I refused to get my masters with debt.

That's the best thing to do imo, especially if you're not going a private/special uni. Most public/state uni's have atriculation agreements with cc's. I think everyone should do that if they plan on graduating from a regular university. I don't think it would be difficult to transfer if you communicate well with the school .

I went straight into college probably because of expectation more than anything else. I'm entering my senior year, major Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. It's not as exciting as I thought it would be.

I guess. But if you're black/poc and smart, you can pretty much get a free ride to any college you want.

I'm smart, but I wasn't taking out a loan for anything. I got a scholarship for my tuition to be covered, but my housing wasn't covered, and other fees wasn't covered. I took myself right over to the local community college and enrolled. I currently owe $0, and built up a good savings. I know people who had high GPA's in high school and great SAT/ACT scores. They are currently more than $15,000 in debt, and they haven't gotten their bachelors yet. Also they go to great schools.

Because of your major or just college in general?

Both, but more so because of the major since I spend most of my time doing homework,etc. The major also isn't exactly what I thought it would be but there's no point in switching at this stage. I don't even know what I'd switch to.

I went to community with my mans on some dumb ish. Left after a year and hustle for 3/4 years. Eventually stop and enroll in a 4 year university. Transferred and moved OT to finish. Just finished and feeling great. As some I wish I would finish earlier but I can't regret it.

I didn't want to ride on being a URM. and was on that save money steeze as well. In retrospect I should have written my essay in RBG colored ink. Pride can be a real mothafukka.
