Which community college should I list as my current on UC application?

There’s 3 colleges for my community college district. I applied to one of them, but I ended up taking classes only in the other two colleges because the one I applied to isn’t offering online classes for the classes I need. I’m not sure which college I should list as my current college in my UC application. Should I list the one I applied at (even though I’m not currently taking classes there), or should I put the college I’m taking the most units at for fall 2022 semester?

You list the college you are currently/most recently attending. But aren’t you going to have to list all the colleges you’ve taken classes at? You will have to submit transcripts from all colleges you have taken classes at. You don’t need to list a college you haven’t attended,

Yes, I’m listing all the colleges I took classes at. But I was under the impression that I can only check the box for one of them that it’s my current/most recent college. Or can I put all three of them as my most recent college?

I took 5 units in College 1 in summer 22.
3 units in College 2 for this fall 22.
15 units in College 3 for this fall 22.

I have taken more than half of my units at College 1. I do all my academic counseling and plan on petitioning for my IGETC certificate through them even though I’m not attending classes there this semester.

This is a great question for the transfer admissions officers. If you don’t get a reply, I’d probably list the college you’re taking the most credits at currently. The others will have transcripts and they will see you’ve been to a number of colleges.

From the UC Transfer admission guide:

Colleges
• Before entering any coursework and grades, you’ll need to first enter information about all colleges/universities attended, including dates of attendance for each college, term system, and diploma or certificate information.
• Dates of attendance should be entered as consecutive dates even if enrollment was interrupted, (i.e if you took some time off and then went back to that school, you’ll
still need to enter the first month/year of attendance through the last month/year of attendance).

Here is a link for the UC transfer application guide. Nothing is mentioned that you need to indicate your “current” CC on the application unless this guide is not updated.
