non trad student prereq advice PLEASE HELP A GIRL OUT

[Eskisme]

hi!
so i'm a rising senior majoring in Africana Studies. I came into college interested in medicine but got way more interested in public health and decided on my major to focus on how race affects health outcomes + took a year away from my school to do a public health study abroad program and policy work in DC

I can finish all my prereqs next year except for physics

I'm planning on taking physics at a CC after graduation because
1) there's no way i can fit it in next year
2) im *broke* to pay for it at a 4 year

I'm looking into schools like Emory, GW, JHU, UTSW atm

all of these schools accept CC credits but I know they're often looked down upon; i really don't know what the alternative would be and would love any advice.

If the only CC class is physics and your GPA in the prerequisites at the 4 year are sufficient (MCAT as well) then all colleges that accept CC should not look down on it.
