A Community College in and around San Luis Obispo, California. Cuesta is affectionately (or not so affectionately) referred to as Harvard by the Highway, Princeton by the Prison, Yale by the Jail, UCC, UC Cuesta, and UCQ. It's a good school, that (from what I've heard) has a good nursing program. Students who choose to save their parents (or themselves) thousands of dollars per year get unnecessary flak from jealous kids whose parents forked over large sums of cash to send them straight to four year schools. Cuesta College has some excellent professors and a few mediocre ones. Contrary to beliefs held by some, it is possible to get out of Cuesta in two years, and many of the students are quite ambitious and/or didn't slack off in high school. Cougar pride!!!
I got good grades and took AP classes in high school, and I'm going to Cuesta College because I don't want to make my parents broke.
AND I'm laughing in your face because I'm taking the same general ed classes as you, but for a fraction of the price.
(From 2 actual conversations)
"Yeah I'm going to college; I go to Cuesta!"
"Yeah, but you're only going to junior college."
"Are you going to Cuesta? That's cool, you're taking the easy way."

Get the bismarck state college mug.A private, co-ed, small liberal arts college located in Poultney, Vermont. Founded as the "Troy Conference Academy" by the Methodist Church in 1834. Green Mountain College (GMC as it is nicknamed by students) has had many incarnations over it's 175 year history. From Academy, to a very exclusive preppy-women's college, back to co-ed status, and since the mid 1990's focusing on environmentalism, and related movements.
Green Mountain students tend to study art, education, psychology, complaining, and griping. Everyone complains about the food being terrible yet they line up at every meal early and proceed to push and shove to get their share.
Students tend to be earthy, left-leaning, and entitled. Alums from all generations and stripes get all "misty-eyed" over their fun times at 'ol GMC. The campus is beautiful and inspiring in all of its incarnations and moods over the decades. A "Simon and Garfunkel" song come to life.
I'd go there.

Get the Green Mountain College mug.A small, highly selective, incredibly kick ass college in upstate New York. Known for its renown writing intensive philosophy and its extaordinarily attractive student body, Hamilton College has been molding some of the brightest and most sexually appealing Americans since 1793. Recently, there has been some confusion about Hamilton's incredibility as a result of Colgate University achieving more popularity as a result of their division I sports programs and flamboyantly assertive and ambiguously homosexual students. Hamilton students simply do not see the need to vocalize their superiority because the fact that they all graduate to become loaded, happy, and influential speaks for itself. Literary revolutionary Ezra Pound, famed psychologist B.F. Skinner, and Jesus Christ are all graduates of Hamilton College.
"Hi, I go to Colgate University."
"I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you over all the sperm in your mouth. I'm going to go back to Hamilton College and not have sex with my roommate."

Wanna get drunk? No problem! 21 bars within 2 square miles!
Wanna get laid? Noooo problem! Frats are crawling with disease-infested freshman & sophomore students who will sleep with anyone who hands them a warm Milwaukee's Beast.
Need an apartment? Noo problem at all! Just make sure you like getting screwed up the pooper with no lube every month.
The residents hate the students, the students hate the residents, and the district court LOVES the steady income of money from the many crimes committed on Fridays & Saturdays.

Get the State College mug.A type of college you pay for by course units over the traditional semester-set fees in universities.
A term which people on Urban Dictionary rant the shit out of, because they thought they could graduate with an associate's degree and be set for life, or take any courses they want and expect to transfer to a top-prestigious school. Sorry, but that's not how it works.
It's nobody's fault but your own if you weren't aware of what credits would transfer or not. You're supposed to plan this before you enroll in your classes. If you plan on transferring to state college, ideally within the same state, you're not going to have issues with your credits. However, taking intermediate algebra over college algebra isn't going to fly with most universities. If you feel your college or guidance office failed you, why don't you rant on about that particular school, so that people can spend their money elsewhere?
Trying to convince people on Urban Dictionary to avoid comm. college, or mostly trying to belittle people who do go because of YOUR misfortune is just petty. When you're in tough economic times, and financial aid doesn't give a pot to piss in, people don't have much of a choice these days. Community college can offer great benefits for some people, including affordable tuition & high flexibility, while being able to take your standard freshman/sophomore courses.
A lot of people transfer from college to university, and a lot do not. Nobody is to blame in life but yourself.
