How hard is it for an out of stater?

<p>I had that plan in my head for a few months now. It seems like the ideal thing to do since it raises my odds and gets me ready for a UC school. The main problem that comes up though is I would need my own house/apartment. It isn’t exactly cheap for either and rent is way higher in la (and NYC) than it is here. </p>

<p>I think I will go to my CC for another year and consider transferring to an California CC. The main goal is to have enough money to live if I do transfer out to a CCC.</p>
