It's worth checking into the specific details of your status as a transfer. My son transferred from a CC to a four year State college. He had a 3.92 GPA and 63 credits at the CC. The state school "accepted" 61 credits. When he registered, it was explained that although his 61 credits were accepted, the college had a requirement that a minimum of 25% of all core courses had to be taken at the state school. The result, an extra 1-2 semesters required to meet the core course requirement and receive a degree. He will graduate as a 3 or 4 semester Senior. It's a tuition enhancement scam many schools use. Be sure you know the fine print.
