What happens if you are at a community college and you reach 70 or more units?

do non-transferable classes, like intermediate alg count in this 70 unit max?

no non-transferable classes do not count towards the 70 unit max. Even if you do end up with more than 70 transferable units, some schools wont mind. you wont get unit credit for anything over 70 but you will get credit for actually taking the class.

does that make sense?

I think 70 units is still fine.

The general consensus seems to be that those limits do not apply to CCC students. Whether we have 60 semester units or 150, if we've only attended CCC's we are still junior transfers as all of our units are from lower division coursework.
