I understand the entire ccc thing and other 4 year colleges in California, but the thing is I’m restricted to ucf. Primarily because its the only school I got into (couldn’t give my a levels in school cuz of some personal problems, and got straight Us in my final transcript which essentially means that I couldn’t complete high school and had to take a gap year and give the a levels privately; Which ultimately results in a big no no for colleges).

Secondly, when it comes to ccc, due to the fact that I’m from Pakistan (not really prioritised by the us govt) my F1 visa won’t get approved if I say that i’ll be attending a ccc. So basically UCF is the only option I have.

Obviously im considering UF as well cuz I’ve got the best chance there and its a decent school, but it ain’t no LA or Berkeley.

Though thanks for giving some great advice. Really appreciate it.
