This is a question for 7: College Information in the CSU application. I have most of my coursework done at various other community colleges, and one of the classes i’m taking this semester is at a college I haven’t completed any units at yet (semester ends in December), we’ll call this School B. I’m taking one 3 unit class at this school this semester, and i’ll be taking 20 units at the school next semester, and then getting my AA-T degree from School B. Since the semester isn’t over yet, I haven’t completed any units at this school yet but am attempting 3 this semester.

When the application says, “Enter the names and locations of all colleges and universities you have attended, currently attend, or plan to attend before entering the CSU. Begin with the current or most recent college(s) you have attended.”
I’m assuming I have to list School B in this section, right? Because it says “enter names and locations of colleges PLAN ON ATTENDING BEFORE ENTERING THE CSU”.

In regards to units completed and attempted, what do I put? I haven’t completed any units as School B yet and am attempting 3 units this semester. Do I put 0 completed, and 3 attempted and cumulative GPA as 0.00? Or do I include the units in “Units Attempted” that I’ll be taking next semester as well, which is 20, making it a total of 23?

I know this is a complicated question, but its a stupid situation and I don’t want to put in the wrong thing.

Put every college where you have attempted or are attempting any units.

For units completed, you need to list each school’s attempts and completions. GPA is your current GPA. Not including non grades.

@“aunt bea” So for a school that i’m listing that I just started attending this Fall semester for the first time ever, do I put 3 attempted 0 completed? Or 0 attempted 0 completed because the semester isn’t over yet?

Three attempted, 0 completed. They can figure it out if you have entry dates.

@“aunt bea” Okay. That seems odd to me because if I include the units i’m attempting this semester in section 7, then it changes my GPA to a different one (units attempted divided by total grade points earned). There’s a separate section (section 10) that lets me put in the units i’m currently attempting and classes that i’m taking this semester.
