<p>kmazza: You’re totally wrong dude. You can transfer from a community college after a year (I know friend who did this too). Its called lower division transferring. You basically need to have a 4.0 and be in really good standing - start prereqs (and even with a 4.0, you’re chances of getting in are slim). You don’t need 60 units either but I do believe you need a year of transferable English courses. Check out ucstatfinder for the stats of these lower division applicants.</p>
<p>And I know another person who indeed graduated high school attended a cc for a year (completed IGETC, 60 units and most prereqs) and transferred to UCI. However he began in high school taking classes and did summer session plus his final semester there he overloaded with like 22 units or something like that. Its not that rare but it is difficult to do.</p>
<p>But to answer the question, if you haven’t taken any summer classes or started in high school it doesn’t look like its gonna happen.</p>
<p>PS. We can’t tell you what classes you need to take until we know you’re major. But IGETC classes are never harmful so I guess you can start there…</p>
