Transfer student

Hey guys I’m a college freshmen at CSUN (California State University Northridge) and I’d like to transfer to Bates College I visited the campus awhile back and I would like to attend. Only thing is that I do not know what I need to get in. I read the transfer requirements, but the FAQ’s do not answer what I want to know. I want to know if I am able to transfer from my college? Or should I go to a community college where they help me take classes needed to get in, but I do not know which is best. Also is there anyone that could help me like an adviser from Bates?
