<p>so, do i stand a chance?</p>
<p>3.455 gpa
Major: Mechanical Engineering
Major Prep courses are done
General Ed courses are done as well
not local, from temecula</p>
<p>Mechanical Engineering is a difficult major to get into there, but I think you still have a fairly good chance to get into CSULB. Stay positive and have back ups </p>
<p>The drag about wait lists is they can keep you on the hook as other schools are accepting housing deposits, etc. Also, while you wait, dorms @ are getting full. We stopped checking their portal in early May a couple of years ago when my son was in that situation. In the interim we’d placed housing deposits and held our place elsewhere. </p>
<p>Fortunately, he had options. I hope you do too.
Good luck. </p>
