Community College
Next year I plan on going to either Long Beach or Cerritos community college. I’m still undecided on what I️ want to study, so I figured I should go and take my general ed classes to see if anything sparks my interest. I️ know that people tend to look down on community colleges, but I don’t see what’s wrong with saving money, especially when I still don’t know what I want to be. I️ plan on taking my general classes, then transferring somewhere else once I️ have things figured out. Some of the colleges I have my eye on when thinking about transferring are Cal State Long Beach, and Cal State Dominguez Hills, I would like to stay in the Southern California area while working on my degree in higher education. I had a plan of attending Cyprus community college and going into their Sonography program and recently went to a orientation which explained the courses and career path after graduating and I realized that that was not the path for me. I am glad I went to this workshop and learned more about the program before I enrolled and committed to going to school for that career, though I know that was not the right path for me I now have to look into new options and hopefully explore them before making a commitment. My question for you all is how did you figure out what you want to study in college? Do you have any tips for me?

Hey Rachel, I think community college is a great thing and I am glad that it exists because it helps out a lot of families who are struggling with debt or those who don't really know what they should do yet. I agree that there isn’t anything wrong with saving money. I am also debating if I should do community as well for the sake of my family, but there is also this part of me that also just wants to do a Cal State. The way that I found out what I wanted to do in college was simply just hanging out with children. I want to become a Pediatrician and I knew when I was younger that I absolutely want to fulfil my dreams of becoming that. The only tips I have is think about what makes you happy, what do you wish you could do or something around that area. What do you do everyday to make you want to keep on going? You still have so much time to think about what you want to do and so much time to explore many subjects.
