So I intend to go into the theatre arts. I have applied to 7 Cal states and hear that Cal State Fullerton is the best for that program. So I was thinking hypothetically that if I transferred from CSUF to lets say USC or Pomona College would that be feasible? I know Community College students get priority for UC transfers but what about private institutions? I know it is cheaper to go to a Community College but this is just a hypothetical at the moment. I am not saying I will do it. I was just wondering since the cal state system sometimes does not carry much weight behind its name and wondering if a transfer is possible.
Yes a transfer is possible but probably very competitive. Look up the Common Data Sets for USC and Pomona and look at section D to see what they look at for transfers and how many they’ve accepted in the past.
