After Graduation: Making the Most of Community College- Special Replay
This week on Homeschool Highschool Podcast: After Graduation: Making the Most of Community College- Special Replay.
After Graduation: Making the Most of Community CollegeThese days many homeschool graduates (and traditionally-schooled high school graduates) choose to attend community colleges. Join us for an interview Seth Tillman, a community college graduate (and now a graduate from University of Delaware and an elementary school music teacher, as well as editor of this podcast).
Choosing community college is a great idea! Why?Look at transfer college’s requirements, not all courses transfer. Each university or transfer college will accept different courses. Check that college’s *transfer matrix*. Sometimes community colleges will tell you lots of courses transfer, but they are not always accurate.
Note from Seth:Even if a community college course is not quite on the transfer matrix, you might be able to appeal. (The advisor to the transfer college major department will handle this with you.) So, be sure to keep your course syllabi.
Make the most of those community college years. If you are at a local college, it might as well be awesome! Here are tips from Seth:Don’t let anyone make fun of you going to community college. When he graduated and transferred to the local university, he sometimes got a little razzing for his years at community college. However, he did not allow that to phase him. “They are just insecure and have their own problems.”
