Community colleges offer international students options to earn a degree.
Community Colleges across the United States provide international students with an opportunity to earn a degree with the option to transfer to a four-year academic institution. Although there are many that provide this opportunity for international students, not all community colleges do. These community colleges help international students with the English language and prepare them for a college education.
