Okay for your question it's a little bit tricky because of the state to state transfers. What I mean by this is that since the Colleges and Universities in California has different standards in other states there classes sometimes do not carry over. What i mean by this is that lets say you took Psych 001 as general education to meet the standards to transfer to a University from a JC in California however the school that your applying for in Florida might not accept that class as a GE and ask you to take a different class to meet the GE requirements. You must talk to you Transfer agreement counselor and see the colleges that you will be attending in Florida accepts the classes you have right now. This allows you in the 1 yr period to finish any classes you need.

You actually may be in an advantageous position, since the community colleges in California have long been known to be better than those in most other states. It shouldn't cause any problems at all.

Graduate with your associate's degree from the community college and you won't have anything to worry about. All of your general education classes will transfer. The associate's degree is the important thing, without it you're just at the mercy of the school you're transferring to.

Go to the university's website and read transfer from JC policy. Make sure that all your credits are ones that you want are transferrable. Talk to counselor. Send app/transcripts. Get accepted!

Talk to a school advisor/counselor to make sure your plans will work and everything will transfer fine.
