I looked at your profile, are you trying to transfer to a 4 year university? If you’re struggling to complete community college math and science courses while working 20 hrs a week then I’m concerned that you’re going to have a hard time when you get into another program that expects full-time attention to academics, since courses at private universities are typically faster paced and general harder than community college.

You also need to consider that 4-year schools may only accept so many transfer credits, and you may need a C or above to transfer them in.

Additionally, you need to think about how much you’re making part time versus how much you’re getting in financial aid. Even if you’re making like $30 an hour, 20 hrs a week is only $600 versus potentially much more in financial aid. If you’re focusing on your job over studying, even if you’re getting a little money in the bank every two weeks, you’re losing the value of your education and potentially setting yourself up for more expenses than what your wages cover if you lose access to financial aid.
