What should I do?

@Wopo07 , alternatively, to save costs, consider going to Univ. of Hawaii for 2 years and then transfer to a school like USC for business. Many have taken that path. USC’ undergraduate business school is ranked in the top 10 or 12 and highly regarded. If you want to have a chance for UCB Haas, the CC route or getting admitted to UCB as a freshman, are the best route to transfer to Haas. However, for both schools, have backup plans since both schools are competitive to get into.

University of Washington in Seattle is another destination many Hawaiians like, if you don’t mind another state other than CA. Their Foster business school is a top 25 undergraduate business school. I hear of Hawaiian friends discussing UW.
