  • Starting a nursing degree (or any professional degree) at a community college could save a lot of money. But how do I know whether my credits will transfer to a state school? Is there a way to confirm whether the courses I take at a community college will count when I get to my next school? I've looked Kambeo dot com and a few other sites for this information, but it's hard to find.

  • @mistercooper2011 Thanks for watching our videos. I would talk to an advisor at the comunity college to be sure that the classes transfer to the four year school you plan to attend later.

  • Is it true that a scholarship or federal grant decreases your likelihood for getting accepted to a good college?

  • Does anyone have advice on starting a degree at a community college? I am looking for ways to save money, but will my credits transfer for a BS program? I've checked on Kamebo for some info.

  • I'd recommend anyone considering college to view College Conspiracy before making a decision. Even if you don't agree with it, it gives you a lot to think about, things you haven't heard from mainstream sources.

    If the link doesn't post right, just search for 'inflationus college conspiracy, or go to video VpZtX32sKVE
