College Help ( Details Needed)?

You have little chance of being accepted into any of the selective UC schools for freshman admissions, such as UCSD, UCSB, and UCSC. For someone with such a low GPA, you are eliminating your best chance to get into these campuses, since they give top priority to ccc transfers and they won't even look at your HS GPA as an upper division transfer. San Diego has some of the best community colleges in the state, and they have the Transfer Admission Guarantee and Transfer Alliance Program with ccc to greatly increase your chance of attending UC schools you want. You could probably get into the CSUs if you fulfill all the subject requirements with a C or better, maintain your GPA, and score well on the SAT. You might have a chance with UCR, but even that is marginal for you. Community college transfers tend to have a higher GPA when they do graduate, and have a better chance of attending graduate programs. I personally attended Palomar college, then I graduated from a CSU summa c u m laude and easily got into the graduate program of my choice. In my opinion, the community college professors were better than most at 4 year schools. Many of them work full-time as professionals and teach part-time, so they have much more current skills and knowledge than university professors, on average. My college diplomas don't show any record that I started at a ccc to transfer - the diploma is the same for everyone (except mine shows graduation with honors.)
