What Is A Community College?
Community colleges offer a wide variety of courses both degree and non-degree. You can attend classes in yoga and swimming to business-oriented classes like human resources and accounting. Because they typically have a much more lax entrance policy, it is much easier to enter even if you do not have grades good enough to enter a four-year college or university.
They are typically funded by tax revenue provided by the local community, which makes it much more cost effective to complete your general education courses before entering a university that directs your studies towards core courses focused toward your career goals.
