Well I went to community college because I wasn’t accepted to any UCs before (the idea of it is not too great in my family given that my parents were smart people) and again, I’ve worked to transfer in two years. I did remember people getting scholarships and full rides to UCs in high school (my area has a lot of people with money while my family lives in the cheapest apartment we could find) so idk what I was expecting but we apparently don’t have enough to pay for my tuition unless we take out those high interest loans which is very unfavorable that’s why I wanted to see if there were any options for me besides taking out loans
