Confused OOS Student

Okay, so as stated in the title, I'm an out-of-state student. My dad just recieved a job offer in CA, in he's most likely going to accept it. I would love to go to school over there, especially a UC school. Unfortunately, it's too late for me to apply.

I heard that a good way to go about getting into a UC school is to go to a California community college, I think...for 2 years? (Or is it 1? I think it's like 60 credits hours or something?) Anyways, after a CCC for x amount of time, you can then be guaranteed a spot at a UC school. Is this true? Is going about this method risky? I don't want to go to a CCC if I cannot later on transfer to a UC. I'm assuming that the higher your GPA, the more likely this transfer is...

I don't know about this option...but how likely would it be for me to go to a Cal State school and then transfer over to a UC?

Thanks for your help.
