What are the best community colleges in Kansas for a business major?

I'm thinking about starting my business degree at a community college in Kansas before transferring. Are there any particular schools known for strong business programs that I should consider checking out?

There are quite a few strong community colleges in Kansas that could serve as a solid launching point for your business degree.

1. Johnson County Community College in Overland Park: This community college has the state's largest business program. With a wide range of specializations including accounting, business administration, and marketing, you have opportunity to explore different facets of business.

2. Hutchinson Community College in Hutchinson: This school offers an Associate of Science in Business Administration that aims to provide a strong foundation for a four-year business degree pursuing higher studies.

3. Barton County Community College in Great Bend: Their Business Management and Leadership program offers both an Associate of Art and an Associate of Science degree, which could help prepare you for a bachelor's program in business.

While it's important to consider a college's academic strength, I would also like to stress the importance of considering factors such as financial cost, access to resources, and availability of transfer agreements with four-year colleges. Transferring credits smoothly to a four-year program can save you significant time and resources. So, you'll want to look into articulated programs or partnerships these community colleges have with universities for completion of your degree.

Also, keep in mind that practical experiences such as internships or participating in business-focused clubs can also enhance your profile before transferring. Last but not the least, reach out to advisors at these colleges with your questions for a better understanding of their offerings.
