Community college

A community college is a two-year school, often cheaper, that leads to an associate degree or a transfer to a four-year university. Lumi helps you keep your classes fresh between exams.

In short

Community colleges offer two-year programs, career certificates and catch-up classes. Many students do their first two years there and then transfer to a four-year university, under agreements between schools. The pace is often flexible, with evening classes and students who work at the same time. Subjects range from English to science, business or nursing.

What goes on your cards

If you juggle work and class, short cards are your best tool. Put definitions, formulas, procedure steps and the vocabulary of your field on cards. Paste your syllabus text or a photo of your notes, and let Lumi ask the questions. It helps you keep the content in mind between busy weeks.

A study rhythm

Ten minutes after each class beat one long session on the weekend. See the same ideas on different days, which research on spaced repetition supports. Add a bigger session before each midterm.
