Actually, if you’re interested in attending USC, my understanding is that it’s MUCH easier to transfer & get your credits accepted if you transfer from a CC than from a UC. My friend’s S & his buddy were considering that route & USC told them straight up so the friend’s S chose to go to U of Az instead & his buddy went to a CC instead of UCI because he REALLY wants to go to USC, where all his relatives have graduated from.

I’d talk with USC about these options if you’re serious so you don’t set yourself up for a disappointment. They were very helpful to my D & friend’s buddy. They have many students who have a tough time affording the expenses & tuition.

As posted, my D transferred to USC–applied after 1st semester of CC in HI & was accepted to enter USC in spring of her sophomore year (completed 3 semesters of CC). She did save us a lot of $$ by this route, but it wasn’t ideal in some respects.
