I apologize in advance for any grammical errors in advance because I'm typing on a cellphone.
Long story short. I suck at math. I only needed drug calc for lpn school. For my rn degree I need college level math. I took the placement test at two colleges. I scored the highest at ccbc which means I only need one developmental math course before college level. My goal is to complete math at ccbc and finish my other courses at hcc.
I will be taking math at ccbc summer and fall. I just found out today that I received a scholarship at hcc for this fall as well. I don't want to wast my scholarship money thus I was going to take some courses at hcc.
Is it possible to attend both colleges, even if I pay out of pocket at one of them?
I'm going to talk to my advisor about this tomorrow.
I've actually attended three college at once (being a military spouse) I took distance course and in-class course and it worked out well and all of my credits transferred.
I did. I had to move across the country one year, so I took one course at the local CC and another course online through my "home" CC which was 2,000 miles away at the time. No problems.
make sure you ask about in addition to whether the class COULD transfer, is whether they will accept just a one class transfer. For example, I think we require at least 6 hours to be taken at other institutions to be able to transfer anything.
Yes it is possible, I was doing pre-med and nursing at the same time( different colleges)...but it is extremely hard!!!! So now I am a junior in pre-med and 2nd year nursing :) ...I want to finish nursing school first :)
Two colleges is no problem but you might consider whether which program will benefit you more. Math has always been a struggle for me too, I finally figured out I was missing some of the foundation concepts. I kinda sorta understood them so I got them right sometimes but not consistantly. Then I dropped down a level or two, got a great teacher, and worked with the goal of understanding each concept instead of just passing the class. It was definately worth it.
I did!! I was a full-time student (15 credit hours) at one school (2 hours away from where I lived) and paid for it all with federal stafford loans. I just had to drive to campus a few times during the semester for labs/exams. I was also an almost full-time student (10 credit hours) at a local school where I paid out of pocket. It was a killer, but I'm glad I got so much stuff knocked out!! I was listed as a pre-nursing student at both schools.
I wonder can u complete two degrees in this manner
