oh?



so 2-years community college students are morons and they wouldn't be able to understand it?

and I don't really know exactly what you're demanding for. Free handouts or????

Right. The vast majority of community college students would not have had the knowledge other than what you demonstrated. How to calculate payments and total amount paid back from interest rates. That is not what DC was calculating. She even had to explain it to you.

That isn't saying anything against community college students. It is simply saying that you do not receive the same amount of education in 2 years as you do in 8-12 years.

Scroll back.

We all know you didn't go to an elitist university, jiro. No one suspects that at all. So stop trying to present yourself as such.

I've scrolled back and you were being very vague. I'm asking you to be specific. What is it exactly that average college student experienced that I didn't?

Frat party? yea yea never experienced it.
Slumber party? yea never experienced it.
Football rally? yea never experienced it.

College debt? yea I'm in pain
College hardship? yea it was rough

so what am I missing?

eh? majority of community college students either get FAFSA or pay for it with their own money. It's pretty simple. Are you saying government is as shrewd as bankers?

Once again, jiro, no student gets FAFSA. They fill out a FAFSA.

So...that still doesn't change the fact that students with 8-12 years of postsecondary education have more knowlege based on that education than someone who has 2 years.

I'm done. You are beginning to get boring again.

really? more knowledge and education than those with 2 years... so... why are they unemployed?

in case you don't know how it works in business world - they are paying for result, not credential. It's of no concern to me if you have Associate's, Bachelor's, or Ph.D. If your background and experience is lighter than your paycheck that I'm signing... get out.

You are so very wrong. The credits from an Associate's degree do not transfer credit for credit to a university. The average student transferrring from a junior college looses 12 credits.

Proof?

Yeah Basket weaving and courses with D's might not transfer. But there are plenty of places to find help.

Transferring from a Community College to a Four-Year College
Plan Ahead for Success
Community college is often the starting point of a college education. Many students begin at a two-year college and then transfer to a four-year college. If you want to take this route, it helps to gather information so that you can make wise decisions about the community college courses you take.

Successful transfer depends on many factors, such as the college where you hope to earn your bachelor’s degree and the major you choose. Check with both the community college and the four-year colleges you hope to attend to hear about the process from both points of view.

Understand the Process
Most community colleges offer two-year transfer programs that prepare students to enter a bachelor’s-degree program at a four-year college. Transfer programs include two or three types of courses: general education courses, similar to those typically taken during the first two years of a bachelor’s-degree program; electives; and, in some cases, courses that provide preparation for a specific major.

Ask About Transfer Agreements
Many community colleges have special transfer relationships, called articulation agreements, with specific four-year colleges. These agreements show how the courses you complete at the community college apply toward graduation requirements at the four-year college. The agreements may apply to individual courses or complete degrees. They help take the guesswork out of course selection. Some colleges post articulation agreements on their websites.

Confirm That Credits Will Transfer
Before registering for courses, you need to make sure the credits you earn will be recognized by the four-year college you plan to attend. Otherwise, you may need to repeat the course once you start attending the four-year college. This is especially important when taking courses in an intended major.

You should also find out which grade you need to earn in specific classes and the overall GPA you’ll need to transfer successfully. Your community college adviser can help you track down this information.

The community college course catalog might show how each course transfers to specific four-year colleges. Make sure you confirm this information with the two-year college, since it can change.

There are usually details about transferring to a four-year college on its website or in its catalog. Read the available information carefully, then contact that college’s admission office. Ask for a transfer adviser, who can help you through the process.

Are additional general education courses needed even if I transfer to VCU with an associate degree?

VCU has an agreement with all Virginia community colleges and Richard Bland College that students transferring to VCU who hold A.A., A.S. or A.A.&S. degrees will have junior standing and will be considered to have met all lower-division general education requirements upon acceptance to VCU. However, a few general education requirements apply even to associate degree holders, and these are outlined in the VCU Transfer Guide.

No, they are not demanding that their debts just be eradicated and wiped out. To even think such would be absurd. It is a gross misrepresentation of the premise behind the protest.

You said that I have an Associate's and I said no I don't and that I have 2 degrees. and you continue to keep harping on it for more details because you don't believe me :dunno2:

no you don't have my permission because it's not important and I've already mentioned about it in AD several times.

Since you know I graduated from Rutgers University... then you should know they do not offer Associate Degree. I don't think state college offers Associate's either.

Cannot believe your incessant demand... wow! :eek3:
 
I was a lowly community college student but those 2 years were totally free cuz of my fast-pitching softball scholarship. *whew!* lol

Good Grief! I am surrounded by commoners!! :Ohno: Shouldn't you people be in flyover country eating McRibs

:lol:

*sarcasm* for those who miss it
 
Evidently, there are a few posters who are confused about the transfer process when it comes to credits. Not all 4 year universities accept credit for credit on anything taken at a 2 year university, or even another 4 year university. It is an equivilancy process. Just because you had what a 2 year or another 4 year university calls English 101 doesn't mean that you automatically get credit for the course called English 101 at the school you are transferring into. Likewise, if you transfer quarter hours into a semester hours school,or vice versa you are going to run into some issues in transferring your credits.

But hey, don't take my word for it. I only spent several years figuring credits for students.
