<p>hi guys
currently i am in my sophomore year at a California Community College (CCC) and am hoping to either transfer to a Cal state Long Beach or Pomona/SLO (San Luis Obispo) as a Aerospace Engineer major</p>

<p>i really havnt been doing as well as i know i could due to alot of family issues
currently i have below a 3.0 GPA but am working my butt off this semester to try and better my GPA....taking calc 2, phil 5, physics 66, chem 101</p>

<p>after this session i will be done with the IGETC requirements and almost done with my major pre req's to transfer with my major (Aerospace Engineering)</p>

<p>i also am trying to work with DWP as a summer job so i could put that on my application (cousin is a electrical engineer working at DWP)</p>

<p>i have a few questions</p>

<ol>
<li>other then Cal state Long Beach, Pomona, SLO which other colleges would be good for me to transfer to, know my GPA isn't that great</li>
<li>when do i apply? is there a fall semester that i could apply to for these colleges? or do i have to wait my 3rd year of college to transfer?</li>
<li>how hard would it really be for me to transfer below a 3.0 GPA with my major?</li>
</ol>

<p>any other useful information is very well appreciated</p>

<p>San diego state and San jose state come to mind. You should really try to get above a 3.0, I think it would be hard to transfer if you’re below that. If you want to start fall of 2012, you would apply in November of 2011</p>

<p>I agree with Norris’ good suggestions. SJSU is a good engineering school, you might be able to get in with a slightly below 3.0 GPA. Check out this link (courtesy of Victor5555) :</p>

<p>I would also suggest looking into San Francisco State.</p>

<p>Hope that helps. Good luck!</p>
