I really think CC is the way to go right now. It'll give you a chance to regroup and improve your GPA. I mean you'll still getting a degree from w.e college you go to in the end. Chem/pre-pharm may be a hard CC major. I don't know much about it, but I'm guessing it involves a lot of labs. Maybe something you can't get at a CC. But 28.5k in loans for undergrad for one year? That really nails the CC opinion. You shouldn't dent yourself that hard for undergrad. Your looking between you and your rents around 100k by the time you get out of undergrad. It's really not worth it. Like I'm going from Arizona State to Southern Cal but for my major the avg USC grad gets 12000 a year more and I'm only going to pay a few thousand more. The other thing you need to think about is unless you find a way to get better grades, you may not get into a grad school. Then you'll be eating that debt for a long time. Def talk to your advisor and find out if you can maintain your major path while at CC. If it's a yes, then 100% CC. Unless your going to an Ivy I just don't see a reason to go that deep in debt.
