I get questions all the time asking me if students should go to a community college or a state school first. These are also the same students who are asking about or looking for money for college. If you do not have enough money for college and the financial aid offers are not pouring in, then you should DEFINITELY consider going to community college for 2 years first. In my area of the country community colleges are about 25% of the cost of traditional 4 year schools; and the education is the same.
Not everyone is going to be able to attend an Ivy league school for all four years, so it is best for you to plan for your life right now. That is going to include planning for the debt you are going to incur. I will always suggest going to community college first.
