<p>I know that many companies have internship programs for undergraduates, would being at a community college dramatically effect your application for them? For example, lets say someone with a 4.0 w/ a relevant major and A LOT of prior work experience applied to an internship with google or mictosoft would there application even be looked at if it was from a CCC? Even if they can prove that it was for financial reasons?</p>
<p>There’s a girl in one of my CC classes that is interning for NVidia, so I suppose CCers have the same starting chance as traditional 4-year students to land 'em.</p>
<p>I think it would be dishonest for me to say that it has no effect. It matters. Many employers do like to see people from universities.
But your skills/work experience/interview performance matter more.</p>
<p>Yeah, ive already done an internship with UCSD biomedical department, and have one lined up with NASA Ames… So hopefully thats enough for two years to not put me at a significant disadvantage. Ill most likely be transfering to uc Berkeley or UCLA… So hopefully ill be employable.</p>
