Delgado/Sinclair/Houston Community Colleges
Hello, Im an international student from the middle east planning on studying in the US for Fall 26. I am gonna attend a community college for how affordable/cheaper it is compared to 4 year universities, and then transfer to a 4 year university 2 years later to complete my Bachelor’s. my Top 3 picks are the following cc’s for the following reasons
-
Delgado CC: pretty affordable tuition for int’s and since LSU is one of my dream universities. I heard i can smoothly transfer from delgado to LSU (please correct me if Im wrong or suggest better community colleges to transfer to LSU after two years)
-
Sinclair CC: Also pretty affordable and I’ve heard they have strong programs for international students and they do welcome them, pretty nice atmosphere (according to others reddits) and the list goes on
-
Houston CC: Again, a very affordable tuition, Pretty big student count for a community college which can kind of give you the college life experience for the first two years until u transfer. and finally have a pretty smooth transfer program to Houston University.
Please let me know if y’all suggest anything better.
P.S. is it true that if you transfer from a community college to a 4 year university you get lower tuition than if you join s 4 years university as a freshman?
