Should I apply or wait?

I’ve finished my first semester of community college. I got 3 As and 1 B. Would it be too early to apply to transfer somewhere else for fall of this year?

Why would you transfer already? It seems like you are doing well. Is it important to transfer to a four year school now vs. after your AA?

Discuss this with your community college counselor. He or she is likely to have experience with student transfers after one vs. two or more semesters. I think the primary difficulty may be getting the recommendations you need after only one semester - but that may not matter at a state school that has a transfer agreement with a community college.

At the least, you should consider completing the GED courses for the colleges you intend to transfer to at your community college (after checking to make sure the credits will transfer, of course). These courses will be equivalent to and much cheaper than the analagous ones at the four-year university.
