Question

美国的community college

Answer 1

Hmm
I'm currently studying at the munity college and I really don't think its equivalent with IVE wor....... Its more like an associate degreee or something. Some locals who don't wanna take SAT or bombed the SAT and those who wanna save money would choose to go to munity college first then trfer to 4-year college... basically all munity colleges are pretty much the same coz they get the same fundings from the ernment (i'm talking about public JC) BUT there're always some colleges that are more well-equipped and have better faculty....... I would say it's mostly depended on your school performance and other factors( like volunteering
intern.....etc)
参考: personal experience
CC is not really IVE type school as most people wered. But the quality will be around the same as IVE because those who have the ability and know what they want to do will simply go straight to 4-year college. So there is no good or bad. And remember munity college has no minimum admission requirement since it is for munity (except international student). So the student quality is a major concern. When you say about top university
first of all you have to realize that in general principal
top public university must reserve their admission to the domestic students within the same state. For instance
at least 50% UC Berkeley students are California resident. Also
a lot of those universities require all student to perform munity services in order to aware their involvement to the society. This is not something that an international student can be easily done. The most important thing is those universities limit the number of munity college trfer very much. In your case
if you really want to in a top school
choose one then find more about its admission information. Then find a school in the same state. It should be a easiest way for you.
我目前在美国念大学中
希望能够解答到您的问题=) 首先是美国的Community College (下称CC)
其实是并不等于中国香港的IVE。 (虽然亦有人认为是) CC的毕业大约是等于中国香港的副学士毕业
而中国香港的副学士亦是由此引入
但最大分别的是
CC是有分两种
一种是提供两年制的副学士课程
但同时间部份CC是有提供四年制课程
即毕业后等同大学毕业。 当然
普遍进入CC的学士都是以能够转到较好的大学为目标。 而同时间在CC修读两年制课程毕业而未有升读大学(TRANSFER)修读余下两年的学生
就可以称作副学士毕业。 但美国的副学士跟中国香港的最大分别是
美国的认受性绝对高很多
而这点是跟中国香港有着极大差异。 但由于美国大学太多
所以大多都能够升读大学。 CC在当时我到美国前询问过专业的意见
他们的意见是没有太大的分别。但当然最理想是您目标在哪所大学
从而选择一间较接近的CC来读比较方便
亦能借此知道更多附近大学的资料。 而进入您所指的TOP U
我个人认为并非在于学校的质素
而是学生的质素及您付出了多少。 这里不比中国香港
例如中学收生面试时会问您在哪所小学毕业从而成为评核的一项标准。 进入了美国的CC
每年所修读的学分(CREDITS)及科目
每一个学期得出来的成绩(GPA)很大程度上就是您能否进入好大学的关键。 亦大约相等于中学的会考
预科的高考般
以您的成绩来决定能否进入您所指的TOP U。 所以说到这里我就认为升大学问题不太在于CC的本身
是您个人本身
正如BAND1学校有人能进入中国香港大学
BAND3学校亦一样可以。 是在于学生本人素质。 至于FOOTHILL及那所... DEAN COLLEGE。 只是FOOTHILL好像是处于一个比较偏僻的位置
交通而言不太方便。 但两所收生要求都不是太高
而且的确是一个进入理想大学的踏跳版
正如我刚才所言
一切都是要以GPA成绩来决定
就算您真的进入了这两所学院
都不等于您能进入好的大学。 以GPA 4分为满分而言
总不能只有2.6-2.X就想进入好大学。 同时间亦可以询问心仪大学的收生要求。 个人不太认识DEAN COLLEGE
但认为FOOTHILL COLLEGE存有一个颇严重的问题就是华人太多的情况
(刚好有朋友在那里读书) 特别是中国香港到FOOTHILL留学的情况也颇多。 要多学多用英文我个人不太建议FOOTHILL。 ESL的科目
我不太了解COLLEGE的程序。(我是直接读大学的) 而ESL在我校来说就有两个学期。(即一年) 连续两个学期都读ESL + 一些基本学分。
