Scared I will not get into college

I am going to be honest: I think for many, going straight to a four year university just isn’t the right move. Especially if you struggled in high school. I was dead set on going straight to a big university after going to an alternative high school with class sizes of 12. I had a 3.8 gpa, and I did horrible my first year. So bad that I decided the full ride scholarship wasn’t worth it and came home to go to a cc, even though they were willing to work with me. I recommend doing CC so you can one- save a lot of money, and two have a smoother transfer into college life. Bad grades in college can haunt you. I also have found in my area anyway, the CC professors care a lot more about their students success and progress than those at the Universities. Don’t get me wrong, there are still great professors at the Us but not as many that really will invest themselves in the success of their students. This also depends greatly on class size in my experience but it’s something to keep in mind.
