FAQ’s Frequently asked questions...
What is a Community College?Community colleges offer several kinds of programs of interest to international students: - University transfer programs
- Technical programs
- Job training programs
- Basic skills programs
- Special interests programs
International students are probably most interested in the first type of program on this list. Community colleges offer the first two years of a normal four-year bachelors degree program. Thus, students who attend a community college can prepare themselves to transfer to a four-year institution by completing the lower division courses in the community college instead of in the university.
