Should I transfer to CC or stay in CSU?

<p>Dear all !
I’m studying in CSU Los Angeles and I plan to transfer to some colleges like: Occidental or Harvey Mudd College. However, I got the financial problem and thinking about transfering to Pasadena Community College to complete my G.E and lower division < it is just the first quarter in CSU LA>. Would this step lower my chance to transfer to my prospective college? Should U stay or transfer to CC?
Any advice would be my precious.
Thank you.</p>
