How likely is it to get accepted into a respectable graduate school for a STEM related degree if you went to community college?

Depends on what you did with your time and how well your grades are (and unfortunately your ethnicity)

You won't. Get your gen eds done at Southwest and then go to UofM for the rest of your credits. Good luck Memphisfag.

Yeah the above poster is correct, what is your Associates degree in (if you are american), and what have you done for your career?

If the answers to both of these questions are unsatisfactory, you are going to have to get an undergraduate degree first.

I have an associates in engineering science. I have great grades and was accepted into a T5 school for the rest of my undergrad. I don't have any research/lab experience sadly although I do work a job at an electronics company (building server cabinets, wiring them, etc.). I want to dedicate some time towards a personal project, but I'm not sure if that would help me with my goal.

I don't understand, you are saying that you were accepted into a top 5 school for undergrad already and you are worrying about getting into graduate school? Why are you worried about graduate school if you will have a BS after graduating.

Because I want to go to graduate school after I complete my BS. The question is if my two first years at CC will negatively affect my chances of getting in.

No. Stop acting insecure. If you want to do research, go do research. When I'm interviewing grad candidates, I'm looking to see what research they've done, what they're interested in, and what a graduate degree will get them besides letters after their name. If you're already in a university, stop wringing your hands and go volunteer in a lab.

If you transferred to a 4 year and got your bachelors it literally doesn't matter. I went from a cc to a UC school and now am in a top masters program
