    Episode 02 - Why I Went to Tech School Before Undergraduate

    Today is a shorter episode on why I decided to go to community college before transferring to Clemson University. Community colleges tend to have a stigma around them that you are not “smart enough” to get into a four-year university, but I looked at it as a way to get ahead of my peers in many ways. Listen in if you are contemplating going to community college before undergraduate and want to hear my side of the story. Thank you for listening! And don’t forget to follow along the journey on Instagram for podcast updates, tips, and more @the_future_dr_barker - Angie Links: The TCEL (https://transferringcredits.app.clemson.edu/transferequivalency.php) helped me a lot to decide which classes I would take at my tech school by knowing how they would transfer over. This is specific to Clemson University, but it is important to check if your intended school has resources similar.
