FatalAccident posted... whats the difference between community college and a regular college? community college is smaller? does it offer the same courses? It really depends on the college and professors Some states have community colleges that are almost indistinguishable from a university aside from the lower tuition. It isn't uncommon for professors to teach at a larger campus and then drive to a community college to teach other courses in situations like that. In other places community colleges are more similar to a trade school. Basically the biggest difference is lower tuition for accredited courses, but obviously a university comes with a lot of advantages if someone can afford it. community colleges in all the places I lived, wouldn't offer things like a masters or things like that if you wanted it. some even only went up to 2 year degrees. so for a lot it was just a way to make the first 2 years of their chosen major, cheaper. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"
