Thanks for clarifying this. It really wasn't adding up haha.

This is what I did and it has worked really well. I completed my associates at ccri and transferred over to URI. I agree with derpbeluga, I strongly recommend talking to a URI advisor to plan out what courses to take while you're at CCRI. Maybe I had bad luck with CCRI guidance, but their recommendations were pretty inconsistant with URIs course recommendations. Still worth talking to both, free information is useful, but don't skip talking to URI. Wasting classes can cost an extra semester of time and money if you don't optimize by taking courses that not only transfer, but fulfill URIs Gen Ed requirements for your program.

I still recommend taking courses you like...just don't pay for classes that end up not going towards your degree at all if you don't want to pay.

Edit: also my math classes at CCRI were WAY easier to learn in. Classrooms are smaller (like high school). Get some harder classes out of the way there. I took up to Calc 2 at CCRI and I'm pleased with the results.

You can actually end up with two degrees, one from each, (associates and bachelor's) this way for essentially the same price. It's what I did a way and it's worked out really well.
