Good CS Schools for a "B" Transfer Student

College Search & Selection
1

<p>Hello all,</p>

<p>I am currently a transfer student from a CCC and I am looking for colleges that have a good computer science program in Cali that I actually have a shot of getting into.</p>

<p>Transferable GPA: 3.43
Non-Transferable GPA: 3.43
Units: 48 transferable
EC: Presidential honors list, bowling, guitar
Work: not much, worked on a website for about a year
Major: Computer Science
current school: 44 units @ Riverside Community College, 4 @ Fullerton College</p>

<p>All my grades are A's and B's except for a D in intro. to psych my first semester and a C in Criminology during last winter intersession. My Spring and Fall 07 GPAs were 3.7. I have completed Calculus II, Calculus III(Multivariable), Diff. equations, Intro to Prog. Concepts in C++, Intro to Java, and Mechanics with A's in every class except for Diff. equations(B). I took the AB Calc exam an received a 3 on it, but Im gonna take Calc I because some colleges only except a score of 4 or 5. By the end of next spring I will have completed: Data Structures in C++, Electro-magnetism, Assembly Language programming, and Linear Algebra. I have also completed some GE classes and will finish second writing class this winter. I have applied to UCI, UCR, and Cal Poly SLO, do I stand a chance for admission at any other cali colleges with strong CS programs?</p>

<p>You'll likely get in at either UCI, UCR, or Cal Poly SLO. </p>

<p>Did you apply to any other UCs?<br>
I might consider applying to Cal Poly Pomona or another Cal State just for a super-safety.</p>

<p>Nope, I thought about applying to UC San Diego but I thought my GPA was too low for computer science.</p>

<p>Are there any private colleges with a strong CS program that I can get into?</p>
