You will transfer most, if not all, of the credits in which you earned a C or higher. After two years, this will be probably be around 60 credits, so you would be considered a junior. Every course may not fit exactly into the other institution's curriculum requirements, so you may have to take lower level courses that the university or department requires, but class standing is based on number of credits earned regardless.
Make sure you research and plan well. If you know where you want to transfer already, talk to admissions reps from that school so you know what they expect and what their transfer policies are. There are people at both schools who can help you choose courses so that you maximize the number of courses that fit requirements.

It depends..our community college has a specific program set up just so students can get right into a 4 year university after they get their associate degree. At our community college the program is called the "University Transfer" program, and our community college has agreements with the local universities to accept our college's courses.
But not all community colleges have such a program or have agreements with their local universities...I'd talk to the community college advising center to find out if they have a formal university transfer program or if its left up to the student to figure it out...if it's up to you, then take a copy of the program of study you're interested in at the community college, take the course descriptions in the program of study, and take this information to the registrar at the university you want to transfer to. Forgot about advisors, start with the registrars and ask them to approve your course list, so you'll only take the courses they accept..and get the course list approval in writing! Also, be aware that many universities limit the number of courses you can transfer into their college as well...
How do I know all this? I transferred between a private college and a university. Then I couldn't get a job, and transferred my university classes into a community college program. At first, the advisor told me that only some of my university classes were going to transfer into my community college program, so I took my course list, course descriptions and talked to the registrar myself. He asked to see some of my textbooks and papers and I still had them...so I ended up primarily taking the core courses in my associate degree instead of having to retake a bunch of similiar classes...it saved me a ton of money and time talking to the registrar instead of just accepting the admissions staff's answers...
Good luck

No typically if the credits transfer over to another university or collage. Depending on which college or university. Tip just ask when applying.

Some credits can transfer over and some can't. it's important to look into which ones will and which ones won't before choosing which university to transfer to.

No. You'd transfer in as a junior at the university.

It depends on how many credits you earn and what all transfers over to the new school etc.

It's usually based on how many credits you've earned, or transferred in as the case may be.
