<p>I transferred to UCLA, and during my time there, an economics professor even wrote about how the transfers were “watering down” the other UCLA students! I definitely encountered this, but surprisingly not by my fellow peers at UCLA, but rather from other people who basically had NO business saying such things. I truly believe transfer students are just as smart and hard-working, and anyone who tries to say otherwise is just not content with their own life! I worked very hard at my CC to get into UCLA and finished all in four years. If you can get through the upper division classes at a university, then there is no question you could have gotten through their lower division classes as well.</p>
