JUNIOR COLLEGE
By attending a community college or junior college for the first two years of college, a student can save literally thousands and thousands of dollars. The cost savings come from commuting locally so there are no dorms or long-distance travel costs, and the classes typically cost less than at four-year schools. Typically two-year schools emphasize teaching capabilities over research skills among their faculty, so you might even learn more in the basic requirement classes you’ll be taking.
