Completely agree with the CC path. It’s not much fun if you’re looking for that 4-year experience, but the grades are well worth it and I find that they can be much more accessible for more mature students that have had some real-world experience. I’m personally leaving TCC with an associates in business administration and probably transferring to William and Mary in the fall depending on what Washington and Lee says. I think my original college GPA was lower than yours, to be honest–so it is possible to rebound.

I will say this with regards to the community colleges: people forget they are cheap. If you can swing not having to utilize the GI bill, even for something like a semester or two, I think it can pay dividends down the road if you want to pursue a graduate degree. So many accelerated graduate degree programs nowadays make this worth thinking about, I believe.
