Its all about research!
I wish I had done more research before I went into college, but I waited way to late to apply my self in high school, so I didn't really have much of a choice anyways.

I totally agree with saving money by doing your general studies at a CC, its by far the smartest way to do things.

I have two Associate's Degree's,
1. Instrumentation and Control Automation
2. Electrical Engineering Technology

I had 5 job offers when I graduated, and a lot of fellow class mates where in the same boat that I was in. I make more than my friends that came out of school with B.S. degrees, and I will always make more than them.

Also, pick a job that you know you stand a good chance of getting. I chose my path, because I knew that there will always be some sort of EE job.

Military is an excellent alternative to college, the military could be the best job security in the country right now.
