Transferring from UK to US CS program with 2.3 GPA (Physics)

Really appreciate everyone for your thoughts.

The UK doesn’t really offer any options at the moment - there aren’t really ways where I could start a degree fresh there. Hence am looking at the US in the hope that its CC system and the more flexible Uni curriculum in general may offer alternative options.

Based on everyone’s inputs, it seems that I have the below three paths:

  1. Figure out which of my UK courses may transfer, go to a CC to get my GenEds and apply as a transfer (will probably take 4 yrs)
  2. Get in touch with individual Uni prior to applying and see which courses I can transfer and whether my IB classes may transfer as GenEd credits (Takes 3 years min)
  3. Stay in my city and do a part-time degree - which I checked and they don’t offer any CS undergrad program (Take 2 yrs)

I understand option #1 will be the “safest” route per se if budget isn’t an issue. However by then I would be at least 26 and I don’t really want to wait around then to join the job market …
