There are many reasons why students want to transfer from a community college to a university , better job, better pay and of course a bachelor’s degree. I picture myself walking on the stadium, my family screaming my name, and receiving my bachelors from Northridge University or CSULA. To make that a reality, I first need to complete 60 transferable units at Oxnard College.

My counselors Ms. Gloria and Mr. Ross not just give me an educational plan, but they tell about their university journey and how everything is possible even if you don’t have the money to pay for your tuition. that Keeping up with school and my three year old daughter is really stressful, when feeling like I need extra help on homework or quizzes I seek help from my older brother, a tutor, or I go to the library. Filling out my financial aid is an important step I take every school year, I go to the workshops they offer at Oxnard College and they help me fill my form out and answer any questions me and my parents might have. Filling out my financial aid will be something I will always take care of no matter what university I attend. I attend workshop at Oxnard College and CSUCI that help explain the cost of attendance at a UC or a CSU. The workshops also educate students and parents on how
