Haccs' open admissions policy is a good thing. How many people out of high school know exactly what they want to do with their lives? This gives people the opportunity to work for a few years, and think about what they want to do with their lives before they eventually decide to go back to school. I mean it's good to give everyone an option to further their education, and to be able to get a decent career; or to fulfill their dream at a career that they want to do for the rest of their lives.
On the other hand college is not for anyone 100% serious on what they want to do with their lives. They have hidden classes you might have to take if you get stuck in them with this thing they call a placement test, which if you happen to do bad on it you'll have to take some extra classes, and pay more money in the long run. That's how they get you. That’s what they don’t tell you. Classes that really don’t count for anything at all other than to get you ready for some of the harder classes you might have to take to fulfill your major and get your degree; that’s what they don’t tell you. Some don’t even transfer. I like to call those in house shit credits. Anything that has a 0 in-front of it doesn't count. Unless it's required under your major to get the degree you want.
I would advise you to do some research, and know what you want to do before you go or it will cost you in the long run. You can believe me this is my 2nd college and I've seen it with myself and others. It's real discouraging, demoralizing, and it really pisses you off.
