The California Community Colleges system consists of 116 colleges, with a large number of additional campus centers and classrooms throughout the state. The colleges are spread over a wide range of geography, from mountains to coasts, and rural regions to big cities. Each college offers a diverse array of educational programs, with specializations that reflect the unique character of the local region. Costs are very low compared to other higher-education options, and admission is open to all who can benefit. For more information about CCC click on https://www.cccco.edu/.

Associate Degree for Transfer - Get a degree at a California Community College and streamline transfer to a CSU campus.
UC Transfer Pathways: Six UC campuses offer the Transfer Admission Guarantee (TAG) program for California community college students who meet specific requirements.
Transferring to a 4 Year Institution
It is extremely important for students who are considering transferring to work closely with their community college counselors at the time of admission to discuss this goal. If you know the specific campus or major you want to target, you will be more successful in transferring courses. Students should balance their course load by taking both general education courses and lower division courses in their proposed major. In addition, many community colleges offer transfer guarantee programs for specific universities.
Refer to the college catalog of the institution you wish to transfer to and check transfer requirements. Visit the web-based ASSIST student transfer information system for more information about the transfer process.
Admissions officers look at several factors, including:
Completed transferrable coursework.
A college GPA of 2.0 (for CSU) or 2.4 (for UC). Some impacted majors and campuses may require a higher GPA.
Whether or not you are in "good standing" at your last college.
Some campuses also require you to complete certain English and math courses with a grade of ”C” or higher.
