Okay, I'm going to be a senior, and of course, I've been spazzing over college for the past year, even more so the past few months.
I've already accepted that, even though I could get into Pomona college (my first choice), I can't go, because it's too expensive. I can't apply for grants, because apparently, my parents make more money than I thought, and all that money is going into paying for mortgages.
So, I have to choose between a UC school, or a community college, instead of a small, liberal arts.
I like the local community college, and the local UC (UCR) school is alright too...
It's just that, I've worked SO hard in HS, I've got great grades, extracurriculars, etc etc... and to go to a CC or UCR, it doesn't seem equal to how much work I had put into my HS record you know? That bothers me more than ANYTHING.
I guess my real question is, since I'm likely to go to a CC, are the first two years like high school?
As in, they are the same at any other university or college?
