<p>These videos seem very helpful in pointing high school students in the right direction when looking at what to study in community colleges.</p>

<p>Although I think its existence a farce, a “minority” H.S. student with good but not great grades & SAT/ACT scores should beeline to Oxford J.C. in Georgia. Its quite small (maybe 800 students total) & in a real cow-town. But if you can stick it out until graduation you get AUTOMATIC admission into Emory University. So for the grades, etc. that might get you in Pitt (if u r an Anglo), & if you can tolerate up to two years in a truly nothing town, you enter as a junior into one of the Twenty Best Universities in the U.S., and which is located in a nice area of metro Atlanta. </p>
<p>If you are an Affirmative Action baby, this is a place you should consider. A Black, Hispanic or Asian could get in here with the same qualifications it would take an Anglo to get in, maybe, Temple U. Then as long as you can “graduate” Oxford, you could end up with an undergrad degree from Emory! That’s right- no GPA requirement for the “transfer”!! A 2.1 in Art History (if they have it), gets you in the backdoor to Emory just as easily as a 4.0 in Chemistry.</p>
<p>I hate this backdoor into Emory, but its there for anyone who can put up with as long as two years in a town with absolutely, positively NOTHING to do. (** NB- I say “as long as two years”, because many Oxford people take classes over the Summer, etc. in an attempt to flee Oxford, Ga. earlier than in two years). Also, although a J.C., the place is expensive. Therefore, the $$ sprinkled out to so-called minorities, is a very important factor. </p>
<p>So if you come from, e.g., an ambitious for their son/daughter Asian family, you don’t have to disappoint them by attending UNCC, VCU, SLU, etc., etc. Gut out two years (max.) at Oxford & you will be framing a B.A., B.S., whatever from Emory U!</p>
