At City College, in Manhattan, 76 percent of students who enrolled in the late 1990s and came from families in the bottom fifth of the income distribution have ended up in the WB_wombat_top three-fifths of the distribution. These students entered college poor. They left on their way to the middle class and often the upper middle class.
Community college is really a great route and is often looked down upon as its not a 4 year school. Yet going to a community college means not only saving money but still getting a good education. I think some students may feel discouraged to go to school if they know they can't go to a 4 year and then rather just not go to school.

He will graduate this month with a GPA that hovers between an A and an A+, even though he almost never studied for more than a handful of hours.
I think this can apply to a lot of students that are naturally gifted academically. Many people I was friends with in high school didn't really have to work hard for their grades and constantly got As. On the other hand many people have to work hard to get a passing grade if they're not as smart.
