It's fairly standard -- at most colleges, transfer students get the money that's leftover after the freshmen/people with carryover financial aid get money. I know Smith sets aside money (and places) for transfer students, but most places don't.
If you're not too worried about the credit issue, transferring shouldn't be much of a problem. I believe if you've an AA, you use the regular transfer app -- because I didn't, and was applying as a freshman, I combined the freshman and transfer apps. It was a bit complicated, largely due to the whole lack of a high school diploma/yes, that really IS my complete high school transcript/no, my senior year transcript will never, ever appear thing, but I got in. They notified me early, actually, for reasons I'm not entirely sure of. Lack of high school graduation shouldn't be an issue with an AA, though, so your situation is doubtless simpler than mine.
Er. My AIM SN is JediMiisa; conversations like these might be better conducted in realtime (after I finish the Final of Doom, that is).
