Hi guys
I have a really hard time with making a decision about where I should go. I got admitted to the College of Engineering for Computer Science at UIC (my GPA is 4.0 and ACT 25). Because of financial situation and the fact that I moved to the US not a long time a go, I consider doing my Associate at local community college. I could save some money, go to work, and my CC classes would be smaller (sometimes I need some help especially with English :)). Also, I would have an opportunity to work on some certifications as my CC offers them.
What do you think? Should I go straight to UIC or CC? After two years at CC would I miss a lot of opportunities and then regret my decision? What is the better pathway for Computer Science degree?
Thank you for all the responses!
