You should consider the traditional California CC route because of the predefined path to the UC’s, and the spots reserved for CC transfers. If you do not follow this path you risk a) lower acceptance chance and b) loss of transfer credits. If the online CC has an equivalent arrangement with the UC’s, fine, but otherwise I would check with them AND the a UC or two to make determine how transfers (if any) from that online CC/performing arts college are treated. Make sure that the information is in writing! They typically have a course equivalency guide to match the UC class with the CC class, along with the equivalent credit hours. No matter where you attend, some of the classes that are considered below college level from a 4 year college perspective (e.g. math below calculus) will not transfer.
