I’m an international student, im graduating high school next year. My parents cant pay me a full 4 year education at a good university, which why im looking for community colleges so then I can transfer after 2 years. Not saying community colleges are bad but there’s obviously a decent quality gap between both. But I’ve also heard a lot of good experiences from other international students that transferred after two years.
Now, my question is, what are some good community colleges? that are in cities what are not too costy to live in and also have good transfer options near them but again, not too costy. Also I’ve looked through a lot of scholarships because I’ve read that its the “best” option for an international student that can’t pay full price at a good university but given my stats and stuff I think its impossible for me so not really interested in any of that.
GPA: 3.7
SAT: 1850
TOELF: 105
Languages: English, Spanish, German
There are lots of good community colleges in California that are located in smaller cities with relatively low living expenses. When I was stationed in the US Air Force nearby, I took a few classes at Yuba College near Marysville, CA. The classes were just as good as classes I took at four-year universities.
The farther away from big cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego, the cheaper the living costs will be.
Bergen County Community College in New Jersey. It is close to NYC so you can go there for good internship opportunities and there are many good schools in the are to transfer to after 2 years. Also, it is one of the best community colleges.
Um, if you could a better test score, you could possibly have better options. Even at this point there may be some affordable options for you. Minot State University, for instance, is $12k-ish a year.

What is your Math + CR?
What is your major and career goal?
edit…
It appears that you want the CC cost to be no more than $10k per year and that you’ll live with relatives in NY? Long Island?
You will not get a visa to this country unless you can show that you have the full COA covered.
Where all do you have relatives living that you could live with?
Tuition and books alone for an int’l will be about $10k at a CC…that’s not counting any other expenses.
