Community College?

Transfer Students
1

<p>Hi guys,</p>

<p>I recently went to NIU and talked with an admissions counselor there and she was talking about possibly going to community college and transferring to a state school from there. I'm wondering how this looks to prospective employers? Say I went to community college, got my associates in something business related and transferred to UIUC/ISU/NIU to get my bachelors. I'm confused as to how this works and how my resume would end up looking. Is this worse than getting a bachelors from those colleges without the associates? Please explain!</p>

<p>It should probably be noted that I'm not looking at community college because my grades are poor (they are very good). It's more of a finance thing.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>From my basic understanding, employers do not typically care that you went to a community college before going to another school. However, you need perform well once you get there.</p>

<p>I think that getting a bachelors from UIUC/ISU/NIU (even if you went to a community college) looks better than getting a bachelors from other colleges that don’t offer AA</p>
