<p>If you’re thinking about applying as a transfer, you may wish to confer with USC about which of the classes you’re considering taking will transfer. My D did after her 1st semester of CC so that most of the classes she took thereafter did transfer (if she had asked them before the 1st semester, she could have had even more that transferred).</p>
<p>She saved a considerable sum by transferring from CC to USC. A friend said that when her S visited USC, they told one of his friends that they preferred a transfer from CC over from a UC. The friend took their advice & attended CC, hoping to transfer to USC. I’d strongly suggest you check with the USC admissions counselor assigned to your region to see what current policy is, particularly as it applies to your case.</p>
<p>I do know that USC DOES accept a significant number of transfer students, both from CC & many 4-year universities.</p>
