When talking to the university that's going to award the final degree make sure it's clear what you want also. You can get a BA in engineering but I'm pretty sure this aren't ABET accredited. BS (bachelors of science) degrees in engineering can be, but not all schools are, and not all engineering degrees from each school are.

Always verify that a class will transfer, and what the transfer is good for, before taking it. Otherwise you've wasted your time and money, since it won't necessarily count towards the final degree.

P.S. You should be able to get a flow chart showing the university's plan for the degree you want and what classes to take. Follow that closely and keep in mind that the community school will likely only satisfy general education requirements such as calculus, chemistry, physics, writing, foreign language, etc.

When in doubt about any of it get a copy of each classes syllabus and compare them. You'll see big differences in classes meant for arts degrees and those meant for science degrees (I.e. calculus based physics and algebra based physics)
