UC Closes Door to Mid-Year Community-College Transfers
BERKELEY, Calif.
Community college student Anoop Kaur expected to work hard and make good grades to transfer to the prestigious University of California.
She didn’t expect her future to depend on whether state officials have the smarts to handle California’s money troubles.
Last month, students such as Kaur got a jolt when the UC system closed its doors on almost all mid-year community-college transfers, saying they couldn’t afford to take the 1,500 expected transfer students for the next term.
