Answer 2

There are some great, in demand, well paying careers that require an associates degree or less, and where you can get the training you need at low cost at your community college. They include:

- Nursing

- Dental hygenist

- Administrative assistant

- Childcare

- Computer help desk

- Plumbing

- Electrician

- HVAC

- Mortuary science (funeral director)

- Police

- Firefighter

- Welding

- Diesel tech

- Automotive tech

And then there are also the field which may be in demand in your particular region, but not in others. For example, in my area, architectural drafting would work. In some areas of Florida, underwater welding. In some states, CNC machinist. Etc. You'd need to speak to the counsellors at the community college near you to learn more.

Answer 4

Community College is generally worthless on its own with the exception of training programs like were mentioned above me.

The huge positives of CC lie in the fact that most every associate of science and many AAS can transfer directly to a local 4 year university as your freshmen and sophmore years.   In effect, you get your first two years of college for half price or less, and you still graduate the four year college with the same degree someone who started there does.

A downside to transfering like that though, is that only your work completed at the University will count towards your GPA, so you dont have any history 101's or English 101's to pull up that C- you got in Advanced Quadratics in your senior year.
