<p>Hello i'm a community college student that finished his associates degree in Math & Science, specifically Computer Science. I live in New Jersey but would like to move to California and so i was thinking about the California State University schools. Specifically i was looking at California State Fullerton and California State Polytechnic University Pomona. My GPA is only 2.5 so i don't know if it's within my reach or not. Based on collegeboard.com the GPA admittance rate gives me hope but you never know.</p>

<p>It is extremely unlikely that you would be accepted at CAL Poly Pomona with a 2.5 GPA, you would probably need a 3.0 or better. The minimum GPA required for acceptance at a California State University (CSU) is 2.0 but I believe CSU Fullerton is an impacted campus. Since you are not applying from the CSUF service area you would be required to have a higher GPA for acceptance and with the record number or applicants to CSUs this year and enrollment reductions due to budget cuts it is unlikely that a 2.5 GPA will be competitive for out of service area applicants to CSUF.</p>
<p>Are you sure you would want to pay $30K/yr for these schools anyway? They are very overcrowded and underfunded now.</p>
