I come from somewhere that just has colleges and that’s it. What even is a community college?
In: Other
I think it is different by state and area, but where I am community colleges do not offer anything higher than associates degrees. About 10 years ago the community college I work at started to offer Bachelor’s in Applied Sciences and we had to lose the community in our name. The interesting part is that as a state college we still can only offer degrees in demand by our community. So to have that degree we have to prove need. We cannot offer BA degrees, those are exclusive to the Universities and private colleges. So in a way we are more community oriented than we ever were.
Nothing changed with our AA degrees though, same price, same curriculum, same transferability to the universities. And we still don’t have dorms.
