Dropping out of LAC to go to community college, then transfer to a UC?

@Ohm888 thank you so so much, that is the most reassuring thing I’ve had to hear throughout this entire chaos. Don’t get me wrong, I feel incredibly irrational for my thought-process right now; I know I probably sounded insane in my original post, but I just needed to hear that if I were to drop out after a year and go to CC I wouldn’t be completely stupid. Thank you again
