I have the opportunity to attend the shittiest university or the best college in my state. The best college has agreements with a lot of the best universities here, so it's easy to transfer, but the university has no agreements with better universities.
Have any of you went to college before transferring to university? Do you have any advice on it?
I want to study computer science but I didn't get in because I finished my high school too late, so now instead of waiting I want to go and do something so I'm not wasting my time any more. My option is to attend college, for a certificate in Justice and then transfer into one of the better universities in my state. Or I could waste another year at home and maybe get kicked out.
Thoughts? Please help.

Don't go to college, go to community college and transfer. You'd have to be a chump to spend the extra thousands to learn you generals. But I'm sure it's your parents money and you want the "college experience".

I'm in Canada, so the college is a community college, each city near me (GTA) has its own college.
Yeah my parents have a bit of money but it's not an infinite resource unfortunately
I don't care about the experience I just want a job and an apartment and a nice car out of life.

Take the community college route. I did and saved at least $15k. Now I'm at a somewhat prestigious out of state university.

go the transfer route. youll save money. it was $12-18/unit (most classes were 3-4 units when i went to college, '02 - '04. 2 years of general ed cost me $1k. two years at a cali university, such as ucla, wouldve cost me $25k.
i was accept to several UCs and stanford.

Wasting time going to college. Why are you even posting on biz?!

I went to a junior college for 2 years then transferred to a university for the last 2. Never brought up my junior college history to my employers, just acted like I went to the university for all four. Although, I doubt it would have even mattered if I mentioned it-- there was just no reason to do so.

>should I go to a shitty university or a great community college that will get me into real schools later
How is this a question?

currently enrolled at community college.
able to transfer to best uni in my state with anything better than a 3.5, which is incredibly easy to get, while freshmen need 3.8 or higher. I also will have saved roughly 20k before entering and only need to spend 2 years on actual degree-related shit.
dumb kids actually spending 4 years there are the reasons i can get in starting junior, since a good enough portion has dropped out by then to let me in. actually two ez
