Moving to Arizona from California. What community colleges are recommended?

We Answered:

MCC (mesa community college)
SCC (Scottsdale Community College)

Scottsdale gets the nod for having the sports nickname of "artichokes"

Jane Said:

So what's up with all of these community colleges in Arizona?? Why aren't there more four year colleges in AZ.

We Answered:

Because the people moving to Arizona are retirees and they do not attend college nor do they care about funding universities.

Eduardo Said:

Is it possible to transfer from Chicago Community College to Arizona State University ?

We Answered:

You apply & transfer. I grew up in Phoenix but I didn't want to go to ASU. I wanted to go to school out of state, and I did that, I'm going to college in Omaha. I got easily accepted. ASU is easy to get accepted to, it has a 90% acceptance rate, and you only need a 2.0 GPA.

Alicia Said:

How likely am I to get into a UC school by transferring from an Arizona community college ?

We Answered:

No one can really tell you that, I am sure you know that UC's accept mostly in-state students.

As long as you keep your grades up (3.5 and up) and show a fairly challenging courseload I dont see what would be stopping you.

Also, SAT scores might be needed for a transfer so hopefully you did fairly well on those (1850 +)

Good luck!

Is financial aid offered in arizona community colleges? If so, were is the best college in AZ?

We Answered:

Yes, there is financial aid offered at the community colleges in Arizona. It is a pretty common thing among any accredited college with the federal government. A person can tell by reading the financial aid section. It should also have the FAFSA code needed to place into the forms. I also have listed other places to locate scholarships.

Also, the community college's financial aid office and website will have a list of private scholarships from outside organizations and companies for a student to apply for consideration.

Second, go to the public library because they have a scholarship list book. It contains some scholarships that are not even listed on the web.

Finally, join several free membership scholarship search websites. Most are updated on a regular basis. Most offer customized searches based on the information you place into a form on their website.

Good luck!
