Orange County's Biggest Secret - the #1 Choice for College in 2018

LOS ANGELES, July 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- It is no secret that more students attend community college than any other type of higher-education institution.  Low cost is a key factor.  Community colleges provide a more cost affordable education, and offer not only AA degrees, but also professional training and certifications programs that facilitate students to become career-ready for jobs in the marketplace. 

It is also no secret, according to the American Association of Community Colleges, that 46% (that's nearly half!) of all U.S. undergraduates are community college students and 7.2 million people are currently enrolled in a community college. Community colleges offer flexibility to balance work and family obligations and 60% of community college students are part time students.
