Why would anyone wanting to go to a 4 year college be willing to pay 4 year college prices to attend a community college? It is odd that any school would suggest that for a student unless the student needed remedial classes. Community colleges can be great for students not ready for a more rigorous curriculum but most students at community college were not A high school students. And like nj818, I don’t get why a university would do this. It seems like greed. If you call yourself a public Ivy, then don’t accept students you think need 2 years of community college for remedial work.
