What is the diff between the transition between HS and JC, and the trannie between HS and Uni? I'm going to be a JC freshman this fall.
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
I'm assuming universities are the same throughout the world. Well, you'll havevarying amounts of work depending on what you study. But there's a lot of work to do. You're free to do whatever the heck you want and are responsible for yourself. No one nags you to work. An the women, hundreds of beautiful women for you to choose from.

I went to a JC for my freshman year, then transferred to University. Unless you're going to one of those rare JCs that have dorms, you're missing out on a lot of University life.
Basically, a University will give you an orientation, etc, and then you're off living on your own in a dorm full of students your age. It's a lot of freedom and fun, and you'll meet a ****load of other freshmen. It's also a lot of work and some people blow it because they're more concerned with the partying than the school.
On the other hand, at a JC you basically commute to campus. Many young students are living with their parents still, so there's not nearly as much freedom. A lot of JC students your age aren't very serious about school and are just going because their parents would cut them off otherwise. You'll notice that your classes empty out about half-way through the semester. There are also a lot more adults working on their degrees at a JC than there are a U. You can get to know people at a commuter JC like this, but there are no built-in social institutions like you find at the U. Recent HS grads at a JC also tend to stick with their HS clique, whereas University freshmen tend to start over and form new ones their freshman year.
Essentially, University freshmen are going to have a lot more fun than you will at a JC. Don't let me discourage you too much--you'll be able to meet people at JC, just not nearly the amount you will at U, and your social group will not be tied to the JC.
Transferring from a JC to Uni isn't too hard a transition. You probably wont' be hit with the same sense of awe that freshmen come in with. And your classes at JC will prepare you for the slightly harder U classes. You won't have the benefit of being thrown in with a group of your peers who don't know anybody, like the freshmen do, but it's not too hard to invade cliques at University.
One of the nice things about the JC I went to (2nd largest in the country) is that it had quite a few hot girls. But most of these were just ****ing material and pretty stupid. The University I go to has a lot more hot chicks, and they're not annoyingly stupid.
My advice is to work your ass off your first two semesters, get a 4.0 at any cost (to your social life, etc.), and transfer to a University your sophomore year. If you're worried about money, don't. Universities have great financial aid if you're poor. Always keep in the back of your head that you're at JC to transfer the **** out ASAP, and you should have no problem doing what it takes to get to U.

I wish i went to Junior College for my first two years of college. I have been going to a university for three years and I disliked every year. In the summer, I take classes at the local JC and its great. I think for me is its in the summer I live in a decent sized city with lots to do but my university is in a small crappy town with absolutely nothing to do. I have only dated one girl from my university since I have been there. The other girls I have dated in college were ones i met while in my home city.
If your university is in your home town or city then go for it. One other thing to remember is junior college is tons easier than real college so its not a bad idea to go there and get your basic credits out of the way. Also I have had much better luck just meeting random people including attractive girls at the junior college compared to the university.

Since I commute to both my JC and Uni, I think both are about the same in social life. Reach out and you'll find people. However, the Uni does have more people of your age. I'm not joking when I say that in my JC human physiology class that I don't think anyone in the class was under 20 (or maybe even 22). Don't get me wrong, you can learn a lot from these people. Being around them and understanding why they are back in school (job dissatisfaction mainly) gives you perspective on what you want to be in the future.
When you transfer to the Uni, you might have to find a new group to hang out with because your friends may transfer to different Uni's. Probably because I transferred as a junior, I found the people at the Uni more focused and motivated to achieve their goals in life.
Even if you commute, it's a lot easier to "live" at the Uni. The school I transferred to, UCI, has a NICE gym. The student center has a ton more food, pool tables, etc. than does the JC. However, the biggest difference is that all of these are open much earlier and later than at the UCI, allowing you to do more at the Uni.
The classes at the four-year colleges can be a lot harder, so try to finish as many requirements as possible at the JC. Like what bigforarms said, try your best to get that 4.0 in the first 2 years. UCI was very generous to a lot of people I know, and we didn't even have to apply for the scholarships. Oh yeah, if you can, try to avoid going to a lot of different JC's. I went to about 4 community colleges (and I know a suprising number of other people who did too), and it makes you HATE driving.
I'd also say the transition to the Uni is a lot easier. Partially because you'll be more mature and partially because your goals will be more clear.
