Taking Classes at Multiple Community Colleges

There is a possibility that I might be taking classes at different community colleges this fall. My primary school doesn’t offer my language (french) so I’ll be taking it at another school to fulfill igetc req. I am also working on completing nursing prerequisites and the class I want to take (A&P) is full but I have found another school nearby. In total I would be attending 3 community colleges!

Would this harshly affect my transfer chances?

Attending 3 different CC’s should not be an issue. Over the years,I have seen several successful transfer applicants that had to do the same to get their requirements completed.

Thanks for the reply. I was worried partly because the other school is on a semester schedule while I attend a quarter school. I think I will try to enroll in classes that I need.

the thing to be careful about would be splitting a year-long sequence at multiple CCs. For example taking French 1A at one school and French 1B at a different one. Unless they are part of the same CC system, there may be an issue about whether you’ve really completed a full year sequence. But if you’re taking the full year at a single CC this won’t be an issue. If you are planning on taking them at different schools be sure to check with a counselor first, preferably a UC counselor when they visit one of your CC’s (they have regular visits to all Calif CC’s)
