<p>While one would not be able to get an engineering degree as one’s final degree at a community college, many students start at community college, transfer to four year schools, complete engineering degrees, and then work at good engineering jobs and/or go on to top PhD programs in their majors.</p>
<p>For some, it is a low cost option after not getting enough financial aid and scholarships to afford all four years at a four year school. For others, it is a chance at redemption after being flaky and doing poorly in high school but then “growing up” and taking school work seriously.</p>
