Ahhh. So the OP has just graduated (or is about to) and plans to attend cc freshman year then transfer. Got it. I was unsure if “current senior” literally meant that vs rising senior.
OP, I agree with @vpa2019, especially that your chances for transfer to selective unis are much better as a junior transfer. For sophomore transfer, your in state publics (Rutgers, etc) should be on your list as safeties/likelies.
ETA: I just looked up when NJ public school year ends - June 17. Our state schools get out in May so that led to my misunderstanding.
