<p>Like all the other comments have mentioned, I also advise you attend CC and then transfer. </p>
<p>Here’s why:</p>
<p>1) Cheaper
2) Easier to get a 4.0 because unlike UC’s, A- and A are weighted alike (which I think is unfair but whatever)
3) Easier to transfer to a 4-year university from
4) Once you transfer, there is going to be scholarships (specifically for CC Transfer students) that you can apply for. You wouldn’t have the same financial opportunities if you transferred from another 4-yr college.
5) More relaxed environment I should think. </p>
<p>Hope this helps. And good luck with USC!</p>
