<p>I currently attend schoolcraft community college, I am no longer eligible to receive a student loan through them due to credit completion rate is way less than 67%, so I want to attend another so I can. I love schoolcraft, I have a 3.52 gpa there, I think it’s very well organized, the people really help (teachers, counselors, they answer calls fast, etc.). [How</a> does your community college stack up? - CNNMoney.com](<a href=“How does your community college stack up? - CNNMoney.com”>How does your community college stack up? - CNNMoney.com) pretty much have them as the best school in Michigan. The Aspen [Group</a> ranks top 120 community colleges, fastest-growing higher ed sector in the U.S.](<a href=“http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/group-ranks-top-120-community-colleges-fastest-growing-201857548.html]Group”>Group ranks top 120 community colleges, fastest-growing higher ed sector in the U.S.) ranking does not even include schoolcraft. I tried Henry Ford CC, I did not like it there at all, a lot of times you have to wait days to talk to someone over the phone.</p>

<p>The college I want to go to is the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor for Business Administration. My counselor is saying that I should go to the one in Dearborn, he was saying the degree does not say which one I went to… does it really matter? I want my Bachelors from UofM and my MBA from either UPenn, MIT, or Harvard.</p>

<p>My son was just accepted into UM-Ann Arbor’s College of Engineering after two years at Washtenaw Community College. WCC has a program called M-Pod in which a counselor helps guide you into a desirable UM candidate. </p>

<p>[WCC</a> M-POD: Home](<a href=“Washtenaw Community College | College in Ann Arbor, MI”>Washtenaw Community College | College in Ann Arbor, MI)</p>

<p>I would guess that WCC isn’t on a list of Top 100 Community Colleges but it worked out beautifully for my son.</p>

<p>I could be entirely wrong but I would guess that when you apply to grad school you have to provide a college transcript, in addition to the diploma. So Harvard, UPenn and MIT (aiming high!) will know if your degree is from UM-Ann Arbor or a satellite. I suspect that it will matter to them.</p>

<p>I wish you the best of luck!</p>

<p>I have decided to attend Macomb Community College. I was considering Oakland cc, but they do not have spring semesters, so they made my decision easier.</p>

<p>I looked into Washtenaw cc since it was in Ann Arbor, but it doesn’t seem like many of their classes would transfer, in which I thought was as weird as that it looks like none of the credits from the other uofm locations don’t transfer to Ann Arbor. With that program, maybe more would transfer over, but I think Macomb is a great choice for me, it’s slightly cheaper than Washtenaw cc.</p>

<p>Best wishes for your time at Macomb! I understand wanting spring semesters. My son attended several of those in order to get caught up with the courses that UM wanted to see completed.</p>

<p>Happily, UM accepted virtually all of his credits… about 70 of them. The only ones that weren’t accepted were the pre-chemistry and pre-calculus.</p>

<p>You sound like you have a great plan in place!</p>
