CSU to CC to UC?

<p>So, here's the deal.</p>

<p>I didn't get accepted into any UC and would like to transfer.</p>

<p>I already registered for CSU San Marcos and just need to do orientation. My primary plan is to transfer to USC after the first year at CSUSM.</p>

<p>However, if I don't get into USC, I'm going to drop out of CSUSM and go to CC and finish my second year there and use the TAG program to hopefully get into a UC.</p>

<p>My question is, how complicated is the transition from CSU to CC to UC? Will my classes taken at CSU transfer to CC and count towards UC? </p>

<p>Please explain the process. Thank you in advance!</p>

<p>Please repost on the UC Transfers forum.</p>
