<p>Okay, so I have been reading around alot.</p>
<p>And I understand that going to a CSU and trying to transfer to a UC is a very bad idea.</p>
<p>I know it's do able but I know that CC are the first priority for tranfers.</p>
<p>I am here in CSU Chico, and I am starting my first freshmen year here tomorrow.</p>
<p>I already feel that I need to get out of here because it doesn't seem like the place for me.</p>
<p>I would like a school with a more serious academic attitude.</p>
<p>I would go to a CC, but the problem is my parents would probably not approve it because I already payed enough to come here.</p>
<p>Would it be possible to go to both my CSU and a CC and still be able to transfer?</p>
<p>UCSB and UCSC are my top 2 choices.</p>
<p>And what would my gpa have to be for me to have a good chance?</p>
<p>I have tons of EC's btw.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>If you want a place with a more serious academic setting, UCSB isn’t a good choice at all. The atmosphere is really similar there to Chico State. For all intents and purposes, transferring from a CSU to a UC is virtually impossible. If you are serious about transferring, drop out of Chico State now before you finish any units (taking ANY units at a four year puts a cap on the amount of units you can transfer to a UC later).</p>
<p>Okay fine, but I would still like to be closer to home (West LA) for the convenience.</p>
<p>And UCSB was a school I thought of going to but never really bothered appling to.</p>
<p>Santa Cruz is fine for me too.</p>
<p>And the thing is, I don’t know if I should drop out.</p>
<p>I mean with all the grants, financial aid, etc I’m getting I only pay $115 bucks for tuition,housing and everything combined. It’s such a steal… :(</p>
<p>I don’t know what to do…</p>
