[quote=AN][quote=CA renter]$5,000/year…yes, it’s worth it. As a matter of fact, CC students get priority over continuing students when they transfer for their junior year. IMHO, CC is a winner, all around.[/quote]
$4k/year, not $5k/year. $4k is not worth it if you lose a year from your professional career.[/quote]

Going from your quote:

If you want to compete CSU vs CC WRT cost, CSU tuition is $6,562. Tuition for SD CC is ~$1500/year. That’s a cost difference of $4k/year.

The difference between $6,562 and $1,500 is $5, 062, not $4,000. [CC graduate! 🙂 ]

Still, not sure if you’d actually lose a year from your professional career…some might, but others won’t. Even if you did, you can always work that “extra year” at the end of your career, if you’re worried about not having that one extra year’s worth of income (not sure if that’s what you’re arguing).
