<p>So I have applied already for Fall '14, and I have been accepted to Humboldt State University, San Francisco State University, and University of Nevada, Reno. I was wondering if anyone else could tell me more information about any of my schools or my chances of getting into the ones I have applied to:</p>

<p>San Diego State University (long shot, but top choice)
University of Washington, Seattle (again, another long shot)
University of San Diego
San Jose State University
University of California, Santa Cruz</p>

<p>I'll give a rough summary of my high school career:</p>

<p>Overall UW GPA: 3.68
Overall Weighted GPA: 3.9
SAT I: 1540/2400 (*I know, I know….)
ECs:
AVID (9-12)
AVID Club (9-12)
Varsity Cheer (9-10)
Varsity Swim (10-12)
Multiple Volunteer Organizations through AVID Tutoring and also local coaching (9-11)</p>

<p>My intended major is Biology, with Pre-Med in mind. Any information on that too would be helpful, too!</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>SDSU (and the other CSUs) calculates an index for each applicant - it includes a modified GPA from college prep courses taken in grades 10-11 and only your M&R SAT. The admission threshold varies a bit by major and year but, 4000-4100 is generally good.<br>
Calculate your CSU GPA here

Calculate your index by following these directions.<br>

<p>SJSU is all over the place - here’s the index threshold by major from last year.

<p>I think you’ve got a good shot at UCSC and USD - UW is probably out.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>@NCalRent Thank you! I’m still waiting back from SDSU. Do you know how hard it is for admission with a history major?</p>
