whats better community colleges or universities?

Depends on personality and finanaces.Some kids are not ready to leave the comforts of home to be on their own at a 4-year institution, some are.Some can affort the price of a 4-year with separate room and board books, fees, etc., some cannot.A Community College is a good half step toward a 4-year program rather than doing nothing waiting for either of the above to change. It also may be an end in itself for those unable or unwilling to go the full way to a Bachelor's Degree.Edited by AZPaul3, : fat fingers.Edited by AZPaul3, : I am never going to get this right.
