I go to community college in California, will i be able to transfer to University of Hawaii?
Im attending community college in CA, Orange Coast College, but then i want to transfer to University of Hawaii.
Is that possible? or will comm college only allows students to transfer to public school within the states?
Hawaii is a state. It is not a question of the community college allowing you to transfer. It is a matter of being accepted by the university. However, since you are transferring out of state, the university may not have an agreement with the community college to accept all of your classes or units. It will be up to the university to decide what to accept. You may want to check with the university about this issue if your community college does not have an agreement with it.
Regional accreditation of a community college does not guarantee that you can transfer the units from all your classes, as some community college classes, especially remedial and vocational ones, are not acceptable for transfer to four-year colleges.
Good luck.

One of the benefits of going to a school that is "regionally accredited" is that another "regionally accredited" school will recognize that school as a legitimate institution. In other words, it makes it easier to transfer schools.
You can be confident that your public Community College is fully "regionally accredited" institution and that other schools, like in Hawaii, will recognize your work there. Don’t worry.
