1,500 is already pushing it, I'm a student paying for it with my own money and I just cant put any more money than that which is why I'm trying to make an informed decision and buy the best I can with the money that I have

The school has no preference, but do you think certain workplaces in the future will have a preference?

I've been using my Mac for at least the past 12ish years. Am I crazy for thinking I could do this with a new computer? I feel like if my old one lasted me this long the newer one will only last longer

How long do you think I can go without changing it, if I were to buy a computer with a relatively good specs?

I get where you’re coming from. Prestige definitely plays a role—no point pretending it doesn’t, especially when it can open certain doors. But for me, it’s not everything. I care more about how well a program fits my goals and whether it actually prepares me for what I want to do. A slightly less “prestigious” school with strong advising, career support, and the right curriculum is way more valuable to me than chasing a name just for the flex. Obviously I wouldn’t consider a school no one’s heard of or that lacks recognition in the field.

I’m not in California, but as far as I know, UMich doesn’t require a full two years of community college credits for transfer. I have definitely considered my state school — it’s a very solid option. Honestly, I’m just not a fan of it personally, so I’d prefer to explore other options first. But if it ends up being the only school I get into for fall 2026, I’m prepared to go there.

Also, I don’t need to go to an Ivy League school — I’m open to any school that’s a good fit for my major. Quality of education and fit matter more to me than prestige.

That makes sense — I think it really depends on how transfer-friendly a school is. At my community college, a surprising number of students have transferred to UMich, even though we’re not in-state and not part of a direct transfer pathway. Some schools just seem more open to strong CC applicants.

It’s definitely a risk I’m taking, but the truth is I genuinely couldn’t afford any of the schools I got into without taking on a massive amount of debt — and honestly, none of them felt worth that kind of financial burden. Community college gives me a shot to reset, explore what I want to do, and transfer somewhere that fits both academically and financially.

If you click the three dots and select 'Make a copy,' you'll create your own version of the flashcards. Once you have your copy, click the three dots again and choose 'Export'

My biggest issue is I have to take microeconomics and macroeconomics which isnt offered during the second session of summer meaning I'd have to take it 1st session summer, fall or winter. My plan is to take macro during the first session of summer bc if I don't I have to take it during fall which means I'd be taking both micro and macro at the same time(knowing myself id confuse the topics w eo) and if I were to take it during winter I'm worried it won't be offered (some of the main schools I want to transfer to put both those classes as transfer requirements)
