Community College Vs University

NameProfessorSubjectDateCommunity College vs. UniversityAn overall plan for a person advanced education mostly determines their choice of an academic institution (community college or university). Most prospective undergrads have an idea of which career field to pursue and probably which course to undertake. There is lots of pressure to pick the right school, and for many, this implies applying to a prestigious four-year university. Undergrads should have a good understanding of the contrast between Community Colleges and Universities so that they can make a well-informed decision.The biggest difference and probably the primary factor when it comes to choosing between community colleges and the universities is probably cost. Community colleges are cheaper as compared to Universities. As a result, many undergrads tends to complete a two-year degree course at their local community college and then transfer and complete their studies at the University (Long 209-233). A student who wishes to take this path is always advised to check and be sure that the credit degree from the college will transfer to the University.Community colleges have minimum admission requirements as compared to universities. In fact, some colleges have programs that have open enrollment policies suggesting that any undergrad can apply and be admitted.
