What’s the difference between a regular college and a community college?
A:
The primary difference is that community colleges offer Assosciates degrees whereas a regular college will offer both an Associates degree and a Bachelor’s degree. Community colleges charge per course you take and four year universities charge per semester. You can complete your general education courses at a community college and transfer to a four year university afterwards. Students that work full time prefer community college because it fits in with their schedule. At a university you are expected to go to school full time. Community colleges are also usually more lenient with their entry requirements, allowing for almost anyone to apply and get accepted to complete their degree.
