Reviving the thread for yet more engineering/baseball questions...
I'm trying to provide guidance for a player interested in engineering (of which I know far too little). He is a 2017 here in California, not getting D1 interest but will be a solid player at another level. He is getting JC interest.
My question is this... is JC even a feasible option for an engineering major that doesn't want to spend unnecessary years in college?

Yes. I've seen a number of kids go to our local community college and then transfer to the University of Illinois to get the their engineering degrees. The counselors are dialed into which classes are transferable. The student-athlete really has to hit the ground running with the grades. The four year engineering schools have more respect for certain JC's than others, you can talk to their admissions people as well.

Can be done, and it will save a lot of money.
