In fact you will be saving money. Do I need the harvard version of Calc I when they teach the same exact rehashed AP calculus stuff at the community college and the credit counts the same as taking Calc I Harvard?

Saving money? You know Harvard doesn’t charge by the number of credits you take, right?

Also, community college credits are generally not counted towards graduation. Why do you think they do that?

Most universities accept transfer credits from other colleges, even community colleges.
