Transfer & Career Outlook

I chose Anoka-Ramsey because it was convenient and affordable all in one! Sociology gave me a bigger picture of the world around us and how humans interact. I was inspired by the intro class to major in Sociology. There’s easy access to everything help-wise, and there are two different campuses.
