In Reply to: What about the JC route? posted by Luminator on January 4, 2025 at 23:43:58:
Oh heavens no. I want her to experience the true college life, from orientation to graduation. I did the JC route, among others and transferred to UCLA. I never felt apart of the people there. It's not just about the degree, but about meeting people and having experiences with them from day one. When I got into UCLA the people I met had already formed their bonds with those they went through August orientation with. I want her to have that life from the beginning. I would rather she go to Alabama or Penn State from start to finish than the JC route.
Oh, and she knows what she wants to major in and has plenty of AP's, it's not that her record isn't substantial, it's that the competition is so strong. The $100,000 scholarship from Loyola Chicago has shown her that she has options, they're just outside of California.
It's all changed so much since my day. And one thing that is non negotiable is living on campus for at least her first two years, none of the commute bullshit that I had to do. I feel so bad for the kids at the UC's here that have no housing. She visited UCLA and one of the things they've done is drastically build more housing, unlike UCB or your Alma mater UCSC.
