Question
hi im almost 20 years old and dropped out of high school for my GED next year i will attend community college in summer or fall. If i maintain a good gpa 3.2 or higher i can get scholarships and honor society when i transfer from CC to a university right? and ill be able to transfer to a good univeristy from cc right?

Answer
There are students who drop out of high school for many reasons.  There should be a lot of schools that would be interested in you as a transfer student if you make a 3.0 in core classes.  Take the basic requirements so that you get them out of the way.  Scholarships depend on the schools you choose and that is something you would need to discuss with the admissions office or financial aid office of the colleges you would like to transfer to.
