If I were to attempt to obtain a bachelor's degree, I may choose the transfer degree. I would choose the transfer degree due to the fact that I would have the freedom to change the degree I want to obtain. For example, I may be very interested in obtaining a degree in the Fine Arts (Associates in the Fine Arts) as I begin college. But as those two years go by, I may not want to pursue a career in the Fine Arts any longer. At that point, I could transfer and pursue something else. It could potentially be more expensive to transfer if I went from a public college to an in-state college, but I would have to be prepared to pay regardless to cover the fees. Transferring could also potentially mess up my resume as far as any extracurricular activities I am taking part in, seeing as how most I would have to show I high level of commitment. Although I have all of these issues to consider, I would still have the freedom to decide whether I continue to pursue one career over another. And that freedom leaves a bit of reassurance within me, knowing that I have options.
You're welcome, friend.
