>tfw graduate community college
associates degree might as well be no degree, you're basically in the same boat
Cope. Bachelor's degrees are just as worthless. Only professional degrees actually allow you to do shit you otherwise couldn't do. It's easier to get a job with an associate's degree than no degree.
hah
i skipped all of that and went into machining. now I'm a mfg engineer and make close to 100k/year and all I do is make sure t's are crossed and i's are dotted.
>It's easier to get a job with an associate's degree than no degree.
It's actually hilarious and sad how wrong you are here
for shit like literature, philosophy or history, i don't see why community college should be worse than expensive colleges.
I'm actually right and you're actually retarded.
Wow youre a genious. You only owe 5 billion dollars instead of 10.
I owe zero.
Have just an associates degree tells employers that you're too retarded or too lazy to finish and get a real (bachelors) degree. You'd get brutally mogged by a guy with no degree and actual work experience
>paying for college
do Americans really?
Good for you then.
euros also pay for college through taxes
>paying
amerisharts ohnonono ahaha
Two mechanical engineers in my office have bacherlors and I don't. I have a slightly higher salary because they have less real world experience.
for anything in STEM the credits don't usually transfer unless it's some shit-tier cardinal stritch type school. if your goal was a 4 year degree at the start you wasted your time getting your associates
Here's the big brain move.
Work part time doing what easy, bullshit job at Walmart. They cover 100% of tuition for various degrees through accredited universities. Get your first two years for free and then go to a real college

the idea was that it's a privilege to go, and a latent effect was that it would weed out people who aren't serious about it. but then we stepped on our dicks offering permanently deferrable federal student aid and now we find ourselves in the present mess
And having no degree says you're too lazy to even attempt to get an education.
For my degree they all transfer.
Exactly, experience trumps everything else. A degree really starts to matter later in your career when you want to move up into senior roles, and even then it's either going to be bachelors or go fuck yourself. That's likely going to change in the future though.
Only if you don't have the experience to back it up. If you do, it shows you work hard as fuck and really know your shit, as opposed to a guy that just has a piece of paper. You're still in college, correct? Stop speaking as if you know how the corporate world works.
then you're right it's a good move
I plan on going to law school after transferring to a 4 year college but at least I have an actual piece of paper now rather than nothing.
