I'm planning to study at a community college before transferring to a 4-year university. Would really love for it to be a scenic one. Can anyone provide some recommendations for the most visually appealing community colleges?
Absolutely, some community colleges are set in such picturesque locations that they can rival even four-year institutions. Here are some suggestions you might consider:
1. Santa Barbara City College in Santa Barbara, California: This college offers stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. The campus sits on a bluff overlooking the ocean, and some of the classrooms and buildings provide unobstructed views of the water.
2. North Idaho College in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho: Located on the north shore of Lake Coeur d’Alene, this college has a scenic waterfront campus. The lake and surrounding mountains provide an ideal setting for outdoor activities.
3. Cape Cod Community College in West Barnstable, Massachusetts: Nestled in a 131-acre forested campus, this community college is near to the beach and the surrounding landscapes are charming.
4. Colorado Mountain College in Glenwood Springs, Colorado: With several campuses in the Rocky Mountains, this college offers amazing views of the surrounding nature. The Glenwood Springs campus, for instance, is located near the Colorado River.
Remember, these colleges were chosen based on their visual appeal, and you should do some further research to ensure the programs offered align with your academic and career goals. Community college is an excellent step towards your four-year degree, and there's no law that says you can't enjoy a scenic view at the same time.
