What is a Community College?

For those new to the term, a Community or Junior Colleges are two-year schools that offer certificates and associate degrees to students. This two-year associate degree allows the student to eventually transfer to a university to complete a bachelor’s degree in the next two years.
So, what does a community college have to offer an international student?

There are several compelling reasons:
1. Nominally priced
2. Personalized attention
3. Flexibility to learn
4. STEM, Business, and analytical fields to choose from
5. Ease of transitioning to a University of a higher rank

If gaining a degree and the promise of a good return on investment be the only priority on your list, then an associate degree from a Community College can be the best answer.
Head towards the U.S after your 12th or “A” Level and start preparing for a bachelor’s degree from a host of programs ranging from Engineering, Arts, Business, or Science.
Post completion take advantage of OPT benefits of simply pursue an additional two years with a university-affiliated with our community college to complete your bachelor’s degree.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1604057207475{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-image: url(https://www.globaleducationboard.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/image_2020_10_30T11_19_45_131Z.png?id=1937) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_id=”request”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1604057320511{padding-top: 130px !important;}” el_class=”tablet-padding-0″ offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-6 vc_col-xs-12″][thim-heading title=”Why choose a Community College?” sub_title=”For several reasons, as an international student, you may want to join a Community College program in the US.

While the average yearly tuition for a four-year program can set you back USD 35,676 for a Tier I University and $15,000 for a lower-ranked institution, the contrasting community college can charge you about as little as $7,500 a year. It is no reason then, why a community college can be a safer bet giving time to a student to subtly stay focused on studies at the same time plan ahead – either to pursue further education or work. Smaller class sizes provided at many community colleges offer students more personal attention and 1-on-1 time with faculty. This can be a boon for students who like the self-paced learning style and can interact and seek guidance as they go along.” show_line=”” title_font_size=”30″ title_line_height=”1.2″

careers by studying abroad. American community colleges offer international students lower tuition rates on freshman and sophomore level classes- a cheaper entry point into their higher education pursuits. Students can then opt to transfer to a four-year university program and earn their bachelor’s degree. To put this into perspective, community college tuition can be as little as around $3,500 per year, compared to up to around $35,000 for out of-state-students attending a public university.

•Articulation Agreements are of great significance when the path to admission in top universities is being spoken about. These agreements are,,transfer agreements signed between community colleges and four-year universities, which provide the student with a roadmap of the courses and grades needed to go from community college to university. By fulfilling the grade requirements and other requirements outlined by the agreement, the student enrollment process into the university of choice is ensured to be successful. Most statewide articulation agreements are generally focussed on community college to four-year public universities within the state.

•Community colleges are often more welcoming to international students. According to statistics from AACC, about one-fifth of all international undergraduate students in the US study at Community College. That is almost 100 000 international students. Half of these students choose a college in one of these five states: California, Texas, Florida, Washington state, or New York state. Many of them provide ESL courses and other services to help international students adapt to a new language and culture.

•The process of admission to community colleges is much more comfortable and hassle-free. No essays and, for some community colleges, no need for an SAT or ACT or other scores. The application process is comparatively much more straightforward. Moreover, the admission rates are usually close to 100%, an outstanding confidence builder for students who did not get into the Harvards, Stanfords, or Dukes of the world.

•The environment at community colleges is of nurture and growth of each individual. Their system isn’t designed to “weed out” the non-competitive ones. This is very unlike the cut-throat competition culture at universities where a student’s self-worth is subjected to a lot of environmental factors.[/thim-heading][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][thim-button link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.globaleducationboard.org%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F12%2FGEB-Community-College-ver03.12.20.pdf|title:download%20brochure|target:_blank” button_border_width=”0″ show_line=””][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
