It doesn't work that way.
Community colleges that will serve you best will be...
a. In close proximity to the University you want to transfer to (or at least in the same state)
b. Have the best course offerings for your particular subject major.
c. Offer some kind of transfer admission guarantee or scholar's program.
d. Have an "articulation agreement" with the University you wish to transfer to.
This is not to say that you can't transfer from a community college in one state to a university in another state and do so successfully. But you will likely find that some of your coursework won't transfer (a variety of things factor into this).
Start by looking at the university programs you wish to transfer into. Look at the department webpages. Look at the college catalog to find the required courses (freshman and sophmore or 100,200 level courses) for your major.
Next, look at the community college websites and college catalogs. Look at the transfer center web pages.
Look at the out of state tuition rates at the community colleges. Its a lot more expensive to go out of state, even at the community college level.

People go to community colleges because they are cheap. Going out of state to attend one is pretty stupid. Save your money for the university, that is the one that will count when you are job hunting. Don't forget that you will ALWAYS be an out of state student no matter where you attended for CC.. ALWAYS!

It particularly is determined by the tuition. Figure out in which you wish to switch to and meet with an educational consultant out of your group tuition. They can pull the necessities for that tuition to switch and notice if they're going to take delivery of your credit. Usually all public state colleges have an contract with group faculties to take delivery of their credit for categories, however quite often individual and extra elite colleges is not going to since they comply with a stricter educational necessities. Talk to an consultant and notice. It in general does not subject a lot what group tuition it's, I particularly do not suppose any group tuition is extra prestigious than one other, but it surely could rely at the proximity to the university you are transfering to. For instance, the university could take delivery of credit from a group tuition within the identical state, however now not from a group tuition at the different part of the nation.

NY State community college have had a very good track record transferring students. I have known students who were accepted to Ivy league colleges from community colleges. Of course, you have to be a really exceptional student. The SUNY system is the largest public college system in the US (even though it excludes the 23 public colleges in NYC.

"Prominent Community College" is an oxymoron.
