Why do folks diss community college?
- Thread starter MikelArteta
- Start date
Idk...I'm going to cc now. I need to take some prerequisites. Why would I go pay literally double the price for one class when they accept the credits either way? My professor teaches at the university too, so it's not like I'm getting a subpar education. To each his own, but I'm paying out of pocket.
If I were to do it again, I'd definitely go to community college for 2 years and then transfer.
I don't care what career people think they are going into. Student debt is out of control and at some point it just is not worth it.
Community college is a great way to get started while avoiding tens of thousands of dollars in debt.
I think the issue for a lot of kids is that they want to get away from home and going to a local community college feels like "13th grade" rather than college.
You're almost certainly a damn fool to go to a big school and take on all those loans. You're gonna pay for the rest of your life, simply because of the nature of American society...
Graduate HS.
Go to college. Graduate with an average of $30,000 - $40,000 in debt.
Get a job, have fun in your 20s. Meet a girl/boy...date for 4 or 5 years. Get married.
The average wedding costs between $25,000 and $30,000 depending on where you live.
And after people get married, they want to buy a house. Tack on another $200,000...minimum (and significantly more in some areas).
Then you have children...Similac and diapers aint cheap. They say the average cost to raise a child from birth to age 18 is roughly $250,000.
But I know.
You'll get a great job and you'll pay off all those debts and loans and it'll all be worth it.
I'm sure it will be.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, only 6.03 percent of individuals over 18 and only 19.9 percent of households had incomes of $100,000 or more in 2010.
And if you're a minority....those percentages are even worse.
I know.
You'll get your Masters degree and you'll have a leg up.
Smart thinking, breh.
Average MBA cost is around $40,000. And it can go well over $100,000 in some cases.
More debt.
But if you work really really really hard and eat Ramen noodles 3 times a day for 50 years and never take a vacation or allow yourself any vices....MAYBE...you'll be able to pay that off about 6 minutes before you keel over and die.

I graduated class of 2015 
i went to university, law school for a semester (dropped out), got a job and went to cc in the evening and cc is what actually led me to get my next job due to the co op opportunity
For one I think it's great for the prices but it's all about the environment your in. If you are already a hard worker and cc is just cheaper then going there is just a drop in the bucket for ur future.
However most are just going they may or may not make it just like most colleges.
Facts are the great majority of ppl don't finish and unfortunately most children are products of their environment if everybody around u is leaving ur more likely to leave too.
That's why most ppl say go to the highest ranked school u can go to and so so and so on

Dissing someone trying to get higher education? Where they do that at?
Who disses cc
seen it alot on this forum throughout the years
Cause they aren't in college at all or their parents paid for a good university/they went into mad debt to go to a university. Most CCs are starting to offer 4 year degrees so the line is getting blurry between the two anyways.
now no one disses it u faggits goof on me all the time about that shyt
