<p>I was a running start student during high school (Taking college courses to earn college credits as a high school student). I've been at a community college for almost 3 years now ever since then. Now I'm planning to transfer to a 4 year university computer science program. I did really well in the overall college level classes (3.75 overall GPA) and computer science prereq courses with a overall of ~3.6 GPA. The problem I have is that I'm worrying having too much credits and spending 3 years at a community college will hurt my chance of getting into the program (Some of my friends told me this) :(. I will have around ~75 semester credits at the end of this year before transfering (Normally 60 is really high enough to transfer). Will these factors hurt my chance of getting accepted? My first year at the community college was at the time when I was still a high school student though. Please help me. Thank you. :(</p>
<p>It shouldn’t hurt.
I’m in the same circumstances as you. And I’ve been accepted in UCSD, UCSB, and UCR as a transfer from a CC that I started taking in my sophmore summer of high school.
I have around 100 or more for engineering.</p>
<p>I’m happy to hear that…<em>woooh</em> I always worry about random things XD thanks for the reply and congratz on the acceptance to UCSD, UCSB and UCR :)</p>
