<p>Let's say you don't get accepted to any college you applied to.. What do you do? Would you suck up your pride and go to community college? Would you start your own college like in that movie Accepted? Would you run away? Would you get a job?</p>
<p>I would just go to community college and transfer. It’s not a bad option.</p>
<p>Thats what a safety is for.</p>
<p>But assuming even THAT failed, then</p>
<p>1) The persons a total idiot for not evaluating his prospects</p>
<p>and</p>
<p>2) You’ll have to do a quarter or two at a community college or MAYBE a state school with rolling admissions before you’ll be able to apply as a transfer to the school you want to go to.</p>
<p>Nothing wrong with community colleges.</p>
<p>Same as fairy.</p>

<p>^^Yup. My family friend went to community college (and transfered to a UC) and now she’s attending grad school at Stanford.</p>
<p>Are community colleges devilspawn? No.</p>
<p>Are there cases in which going to community college is a good thing? Of course.</p>
<p>Do you want to make community college your safety school? No, you definitely do not.</p>
<p>I’d go to community college. I actually think it’s a great idea and doesn’t deserve its bad rep most of the time.</p>
<p>But since I’m selfish and crave a true college experience far away from home, you won’t be seeing me at a community college this fall. (Hopefully)</p>
<p>My safety was essentially a CC, though I was pretty sure I wasn’t going to get rejected by UCLA/UCB/UCSD. My brother chose a CC over a CSU, though that was after a year there.</p>
<p>Grit my teeth and go to a community college, I guess.
(Do not want to even imagine)</p>
<p>gap year, get a job, reapply</p>
<p>Shoot myself in the balls</p>
<p>^That is crazy. At least shoot yourself fatally.</p>
<p>If I don’t get accepted anywhere, I’ll marry blissfulting and we’ll have babies that go to Somewhere University! :)</p>
<p>My mother would wring my neck before I had time to think about it.</p>
<p>Especially because I’m applying to some schools that I should get into. We’ll see, though…</p>
<p>haha. My mom told me that her second choice would be for me to get into community college. The first being that I get into my first choice.</p>
<p>You apply to safety schools so that doesn’t happen.</p>
<p>If it did, I’d probably take a gap year and try to get a job. Community college is really far away. Like a 40 minute drive during rush hour.</p>
<p>I literally got rejected from my safety.</p>
<p>I would probably go to a community college and then transfer to a UC.</p>
<p>UC’s give first priority to transfers anyway.</p>
<p>“At least shoot yourself fatally.”</p>
<p>■■■■■. probably this, for me ; P</p>
<p>& my dad would never let me go to community college, so…</p>
