Can I transfer from comunity college to a private college?

I am getting ready to start my first year of college at a local community college. I am a very driven person, and I intend on pouring every ounce of energy I have into school. That being said I plan on transfering to a University in 2 years. As I was reading up about colleges and which ones where the best. I noticed that private colleges promised superior education, and a more hands on approach. I plan on majoring in psychology, prehaphs early child development. I always strive for the best therefore I wanted the best possible eduction. Is it uncommon for private colleges to except a student from a communtiy college despite excellent grades and high test scores? And is there anything else I can do to improve my chances?

If not can I attend a public UC for the first 2 years and then transfer with good grades to a private college?

I find it hard to believe you have trouble finding a college with all the credential you have. In many states, if you go to community college and get an AA degree, it is a direct substitute for the first two years of 4 year college. That is an option. If you don’t complete the AA degree, the credit should transfer on class-by-class basis. You should check with the college first. I would suggest you make an appointment with admissions counselors in the college and discuss your problems. Your problem may be outside of your credits… or you are looking at universities that are too competitive for your (already good) scores.
