Why are CC transfers a priority?

If the classes at a CCC are not as difficult, why do UCs like accepting CC transfers?

<p>Your premise is unsupported and not necessarily true.</p>

<p>Furthermore, UCs don’t “like” accepting community college transfers, they are legally mandated to give priority to community college transfers. The California Master Plan for Higher Education, which was developed in the 1960s, explicitly developed the path from CCs to UCs as a way to improve access to the UC system for underserved students.</p>
