Reply to "JUCO's and CC's"

catchrsdad, Transferring of credits is a concern when attending a JUCO. My son heads off this fall and by the research I've done, he may have to find a "close" fit. Also, much depends if your son is a qualifier and only plans on staying one year - of course he may go in with this plan and change his mind.

Find a JUCO that your son likes and talk to the academic advisor there. The one at my son's school has been very helpful. He's planning on secondary education, so we're taking courses that can be used for that degree, although they don't have an actual secondary ed program. The challenge is also at looking ahead to transferring credits as you don't know for sure where they will go to 4 year, so it is complicated!

So, again if interested in JUCO, I'd go on with recruiting process, when receiving offer, talk with the academic advisor there to see what they recommend as far as his options.
