Too Many Credits to Transfer?

Transfer Students
1

<p>OK so here it goes....When I first graduated from high school in (2007) I attended the University of Florida during the fall of 07, but after a semester I transfered to a community college. After this semester I will have a total of 59 credits. </p>

<p>The problems is I am an engineering major and have just started my calculus sequence and have not even begun physics. So I will not graduate with my AA-in engineering until the spring 10' and I might have 90-100 credits. Do colleges look down upon taking so many classes at community colleges??? I know most major universities have a max transfer limit of 60-80 credits.</p>

<p>Also I was thinking of taking classes that I did not necessary needed in order to raise my GPA a little bit. Do colleges look at your overall GPA or just your GPA in your critical tracking courses.??? So would it be a good a idea to keep filling up my schedule with classes I really don't need or should I just focus on the classes for my major b/c thats the only thing the major universities look at anyway???....</p>

<p>Thanks for your help and time ...</p>

<p>they’ll look at your gpa and consider you primarily based on “transferable courses” when you’re at a community college they’re aware that you have to transfer in order to get a bachelors, so when they see 100 units or so, i think they understand, but that just MEANS that they’ll only accept the MAX TRANSFER LIMIT of your 100, which for some schools its 60 for some 80 for some its 75. It just depends on the school and your prospective major. obviously if your major is specific and the school has a ton of requirements, the 60 units that you do end up transferring will be pointless because you’ll still need to fufill the schools reqs that can’t be taken outside of their school.</p>
