Hi, I’m currently a high school student going towards my 2 year diploma which is basically a transfer program at a college. I accepted my offer at Sheridan college and took General Arts and Science (2 year- university program)

I know for a fact that Canadian universities don’t give equal credits and they end up giving you less credits. Hence, 2 years at college would be 1 year at university or less. On the other hand, most American universities give equivalent credits. I plan on doing BA in psychology. Is it possible for me to get into a well reputed or ivy league American university after transferring from Sheridan with equal credits or at least considered as one year of university?

Also, I plan on doing clinical or forensic psychology in the long run. Can someone tell me the pre requisites I need?
