Why do people seem to suggest gap year over community college?

<p>

</p>

<p>This can be an advantage to starting at a CC, because the extra year at CC before transfer is cheaper than doing the “catch up” after transfer at the four year school, taking an extra year there.</p>

<p>Re: #39 and #40</p>

<h1>40 is correct in that a very large percentage of CC students are not intending to transfer to a four year school, but are taking courses for other goals (e.g. associates degree, vocational education certificate, or personal interest).</h1>
