<p>I'd really appreciate if you could help me make the right decision. Here's my situation:</p>
<p>I was accepted into 5 schools and I've currently narrowed down my options to either SDSU or community college (my original goal was the UC schools but I was denied admission, so I've been urged to go to community college - this way I can transfer easily and save money at the same time).</p>
<p>The issue is that I worked really hard in high school and would like to see that hard work pay off by actually attending a 4-year institution. I don't want to throw that hard work away BUT I've heard so many negative experiences from SDSU I'm hesitant about attending.</p>
<p>What would you choose? I've qualified for financial aid and would be majoring in Biology.</p>
