No one asked but I graduated highschool in 2020 with a 2.0 gpa (3.0 on a 5.0 scale) and a low SAT so naturally I had no choice but to choose a community college. I attended a community for the first 2 years, had a straight 4.0 for both years, transfered over to a private D1 university and had scholarships which brought my yearly tuition down from $55K to $20K. I've had a straight 4.0 since I've transferred over and I'm planning on going to law school after I graduate in 2024. So far, I was accepted into Yale, Columbia, Duke and UChicago. Would I be able to do all of this without my community college? Absolutely not. It's a wonderful stepping stone and I don't think anyone should be ashamed of it.

I got accepted into UC Berkeley, Cornell, and Harvard. I went to UC Berkeley for since it was the most affordable of the three and had a great first year. Unfortunately, there was a family member that needed hospice care and my mom was overwhelmed. This was after a divorce that happened two years before. I left and went to community college. I was so angry at that time, not at my family but at the situation. But it was what I needed to humble myself. I’m actually doing a lot better now, no debt, graduated, have two profession in two different fields and planning to go to med school.

The statement you just quoted is one of the most counterintuitive, contradictory, and redundant statements I have ever heard in my lifetime. Now, would you say attending an Ivy League school says a lot about who you are? You might think that an Ivy Leaguer is privileged, wealthy, extremely bright, and has good connections. All of those things have a say in that Ivy Leaguer’s personality; it is not a bad thing to admit, and not everyone who shares those traits have the same personality, there are serval more traits that shape up that Ivy Leaguer. However, they attend an Ivy League school. They attend a school that they worked their entire lives to go to. They do what they attend. Even if you don’t accomplish something, you are defined by that and your potential to improve.

community college student here! I went to a state university for a year and did HORRIBLY (I had personal things going on and it was the 2020-2021 school year, so needless to say things were challenging). I took a year off before deciding to go back to school. my governor offered free community college to all state residents who graduate/graduated high school in 2020-2023, so it seemed like a no-brainer. I didn't end up qualifying for that scholarship because I got too much aid money (as in full-ride, plus almost $1000 surplus) (and I'm not complaining, I'm so grateful because I could not have afforded to go otherwise). I have to say that I have found so many resources and forms of support within my school that I never saw when I went to a university. I have also found that the only stigma I've faced when sharing that I go to a community college comes from myself. I used to be so embarrassed that I wasn't going to a "real" school. but you know what? my degree will be just as "real" as one a person who went to an ivy league will earn. I'm proud to go to a community college, and I'll gladly tell anybody who asks.

I'm a senior HS while doing cert on Health Support Services in tradeschool and will graduate this year. Tight on money to pay for tuition and was thinking of going to community college because apparently, the tuition from university made me gulp and think of my life choices.

I’ve never experienced shame with community college. It was such a great stepping stone and so affordable. One semester at the university I transferred to after my AA was more than my total associates. I’m proud of the choice I made because it allowed me to make better financial decisions. I loved community college and if you’re not sure what you want to yet, it’s a great way to have time to decided by taking affordable courses that can transfer to something else.

And then, it's Harvard that shaped him into the person he is now. He got the motivation, he changed the way of thinking, his attitude.... I agreed with what Saul said but the 'environment' does affect people too. If you are working in a place where all the ppl are punctual, doesn't it encourage you to be a 'punctual' person at work as well?

During my National Honor Society ceremony, my high school randomly announced only one student's college decision and that was the one student who got into Harvard in my school. They didn't bother to announce the fact that so many other students there were doing something with their lives after high school whether that be college or work or something else. Everyone stood up and clapped for him and I felt invisible. I had the same GPA as this kid, more extracurricular commitments, and more involvement in the school community (and I know plenty of kids in the national honor society who also did a lot more during their time in high school) but none of us got celebrated. I'm going to the city college of New York and for some reason despite how amazing the morals of the school are (with having been the first free college attended by immigrants and poor minorities in NYC with the only main focus of the admissions process being on the merit of these students), ivy league students still get the spotlight over everyone else.

I was also in National Honor Society, one student got called out for going to Berkley (everyone else neglected). I was ranked in the middle of my class and nobody ever heard of my university. 1 Associate's Degree, 2 Bachelor Degrees, and almost a Master's Degree later, I forgot who that kid was. I've always embraced the sleeper status and I encourage others to do the same as well. Underdogs always prevail. I'm rooting for you!

After I graduated high school I was super psyched to go to the school of my dreams but then I lost all my financial aid to finance my way so I decided to go to community college. I can honestly say that, though I was soul crushed, I am so glad I decided not to bury myself in debt from my undergrad years! It was the best choice I could’ve made. I’ve met quite a few amazing professors at community college who are passionate about their areas of expertise and it was truly a treasure. I transferred to USC and received a full ride! It’s a complete different experience but nevertheless I am enjoying my time here regardless. You can get anywhere you set your mind too as long as you put in the effort and have amazing support systems!

@@luckyduck_. Well for USC in particular, I recommend that if you come from a low income household you should apply for FAFSA and submit your CSS Profile for USC. They give you A LOT of financial aid if you qualify under FAFSA. I’m not sure exactly what the conditions are but I’d recommend speaking with a CPA or someone who knows the inner workings of these things to see your options otherwise. If you do happen to go down the FAFSA + CSS profile route USC will ask you for a lot of documents regarding your income (or your parent’s income if they claim you as a dependent), expenses, relationships, etc. it can get tedious but I promise you the end goal is so so so worth it. I got a total of about 75k in financial aid per year. I even lost some at the last minute as well, but that didn’t matter because USC gave me 10k extra to make up for the aid I lost. I can’t speak for all schools but speaking from experience, private institutions have huge endowments which means more financial aid especially for low income families. For instance, while weighing my options of whether to go to UCLA or USC I went to USC because they gave me more money. However, every school operates differently, and the documents they request will be slightly different so I highly suggest doing more research if you are looking into a different school other than USC. Most of how I got a full ride was because I was claimed as a dependent from a low income household so I’m not sure what advice I could give if you aren’t in the same financial position as me. Regardless, I really wish you well, and hope you get into the school of your dreams!

Perhaps he meant it in more general terms. I.e. (In a non-academic sense, they have no grounds to assume that we’re stronger/inherently better than other people). But even with academia, there’s an *undeniable element of pot luck* that comes with applying to highly-selective universities. Whether it be *legacy admissions* in which which view the children of former *alumni* more favourably during selection processes. Or even the arbitrary mood/biases of *interviewers* which strove beyond our control. Considering the above, it’s not right to assume that acceptance into these universities is completely one’s own doing. We’re all indebted to arbitrary factors to some extent, and the pupils accepted into these universities certainly are too.

My best experience was at the community college, instructors were actually engaged in teaching and honestly my lower div math + physical sciences were much more difficult than my undergrad institution. I studied engineering.

Claiming that you are defined entirely by yourself and not by the community you inhabit and the people around you isn't "good," it's deeply naive. I don't understand why so many commentators here live in a fantasy world where humans come into adulthood as fully formed autonomous beings, as if its shocking that spending 4 years of your life somewhere, entrenched in its culture inevitably becomes key to who you are in a pretty critical part of life.

Definitely you can feel attachment to your school - but at the end of the day it's not *who you are.* Like what Saul said, you're defined by what you do, not by what school you attended. I attend a prestigious school on scholarship, but while I'm obviously proud of my school, I understand that it's just a temporary thing in my life. It's not my forever thing. I'm always going to cherish the friendships and memories, but I'm not gonna carry my education with me forever.

Every community you become a part of is going to define the things you do now and probably in the future and not only that but the person you are now and the person you will be. People build communities and communities build people and identities. Almost everything you are is a part of a social and cultural network so of course education, living in a place for a certain amount if time, is going to define you and change you. You are going to meet people and throught contact with them affirm you beliefs or adopt new ones. You are going to learn things you will use in you life, that will get you a job, through wich you will be in certain places and be a particular person. Just like with family, friends, the music you like, the things you do - everything defines you, college/uni no less, especially when you are coming of age. That's why humanitarian scienses like social and cultural anthropology are so important, they teach you that human beings are not autonomous but are in fact social beings that create culture (in a very broad sense of the word) which in turn creates human beings.

Going to community college allowed me a chance to find my stability and explore what I liked. I worked part time jobs and took out loans to put a roof over my head while I went to school. Since I paid for it myself, I feel like I got more value out of it than others that hadn't invested as much of themselves into it.

I am incredibly proud of attending a community college, I'm majoring in a subject that I love, I have friends going there, I get to stay close to my family, and when my two years are up I'll attend university. I think people miss the fact that you can transfer, your not stuck in a box always remember that.

I'm honestly more impressed in the old man who graduated recently. There is so much courage in pursuing higher education when one is older. College name doesn't matter.

when you're that old, no, I wouldn't think so or if you are pursuing higher education simply to learn more and expand your knowledge which is always a great thing to do. However, when you're looking for job opportunities, you better believe college names matter. Some doors close depending on whether or not your school is recognized and some doors open if the employer has specific ties to your school or wants to use your reputable school for marketing purposes e.g. sales/front office positions.

Saul is incredibly wise and it’s inspiring that he graduated at his age. I feel like people think that once you hit a certain age, “it’s over” and there’s no reason to go to college especially when you don’t feel you fit the “stereotypical” college student. Congrats to him.

I feel connection can be made anywhere & those who want to learn can learn anything, but the only thing Ivy are hyper about it is their Alumni & the friendship you make. Networking is all that matters. Also I loved the sir who's 85, it felt more like the movie intern where he is trying his best to keep learning new things

Hi! Which community college did you go to and how

I totally agree on the line: that a college or university is just a building and the people around you and how you utilise that opportunities is what you are not the name you've attached to. Also i do accept that a certain college badge do benefit in some spheres but not in most.
