<p>Hey! </p>

<p>I am a transfer student with a CSU transferable GPA of 2.82. I am applying to the following schools for Mechanical Engineering:</p>

<p>Cal Poly Pomona
San Jose State University
California State University Northridge
Sacramento State University
California State University Fresno</p>

<p>Does anyone have any helpful information about any of the schools I am applying too? Anyone else here applying to CSUs for Mechanical Engineering? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Sprint 2012: 3.20
Fall 2012: 3.35
Fall 2013: 2.55
Fall 2014: 2.90</p>

<p>Thanks for the link! </p>

<p>I attended a UC and finished up a lot of my lower division engineering there. Then,I withdrew for some personal reasons, and I am now attending a cc. My cc GPA is 3.6,but my UC GPA brings my transferable GPA down to 2.8.</p>

<p>Do you know if they look into these details (or what school were attended) or do they just reject your application if you don’t meet the threshold GPA?</p>

<p>Thanks again fr your help. </p>

If they only ask for your transcripts after they admit/deny you, then no, they do not look into grade trends or anything like that (how could they?). However, if they requested your transcripts before admitting/denying you, then it could be a possibility.
