<p>USC is also not part of the CA state school system and is a private U, just as Redlands is. The UCs have specific agreements to take CC transfers that are CA residents and meet criteria. We are not CA residents, so I don’t know these details, but you could speak with the CC and UC counselors about these programs to get more details.</p>
<p>I know that USC was helpful in working with my D to choose courses that would transfer and provide credit when she was considering appying to USC. All but one of her courses did transfer.</p>
<p>I guess I’d talk with all the Us you were accepted at as well as those you MIGHT want to transfer into and then weigh your options. If you are considering, you may wish to visit the campuses you are most seriously considering as well.</p>
