<p>The core requirements for my desired transfer school includes two freshman english courses. Problem is that my current university does not have the equivalent for the second of these english courses. I am planning to take the course at a community college this summer. So I dropped one course this semester and am taking 13 credits instead of 16. Will the college I'm transfering to look at this badly? As far as I can tell there is no place where I can mention that I'm planning to take a course at a community college on the application.</p>
<p>a 13 credit semester is not looking to be a very rigorous schedule, so i can't imagine it would help. that being said, i dont think it would hurt too much...while you may be taking another 3 credits later, the fact remains you are only taking 13 credits now</p>
