1. You can use this link to figure out the # of transfers accepted by the UC’s for each CCC of interest.

2. CCC students can TAG to 6 of the 9 UC campuses: UCM/UCR/UCSC/UCI/UCD and UCSB. Some majors at UCSB no longer accept TAG. Here is a link to the UC TAG Matrix and another link on general information for TAG.
If the student meets all the TAG requirements, they are guaranteed admission to their school of choice. You can only TAG to one campus, but can apply to all others as a regular transfer student.

For CSU’s, there are AS-T and AT-T agreements and unlike the UC’s, transfer applicants are given priority at their local CSU.

UCLA and UCB have TAP where transfer students are given priority but not a guarantee. Not all CCC’s offer TAP.

3 & 4) Not sure about transferring to UW, but as a California resident, your daughter would be paying OOS fees to attend a Washington CC so it would be expensive with no guarantee of admission vs TAGing to a highly ranked UC instead.
