<p>When do you know if they got your transcripts in? I’m a transfer and I sent them in on Monday. Just wondering because that would suck if they got lost in the mail</p>
<p>The Power of One: Thankyou!!! Yes, CSULB was my top choice but whatever, I’m totally over it. Hahhha. College still awaits for me… Thanks so much, your comment made my day! 
:)</p>
<p>carliecarlie: I’ve always considered myself an optimistic pessimist because I already had a sinister feeling that I wasn’t going to get into CSULB but once I received my rejection, I looked forward to my future nonetheless. Hahhha. Thank you so much for your support, I really do appreciate it!!!
:)</p>
<p>@ndirish345 Haha, you were right. It updated earlier today. Now my status reads as:</p>
<p>“Your application is currently complete and ready for review! Due to the competitive nature of our admission process, admission decisions will be out out no later than May 1. We will notify you by email of the decision or if we should need any additional documents.”</p>
<p>Hm, I hope that doesn’t mean insta-rejection haha.</p>
<p>Stressy, it isn’t an auto reject. That’s the e-mail everyone gets. According to their reports on here ([CSULB</a> Enrollment Services](<a href=“http://www.csulb.edu/depts/enrollment/admissions/transfer_gpa.html#]CSULB”>http://www.csulb.edu/depts/enrollment/admissions/transfer_gpa.html#)) I fall in to the upper 75% of applicants from last year with the GPA I applied with. I’m guess that you are also a transfer. Check out that page and you can see where you fall in and that will give you a better clue of your chances of getting in. Good luck! We should be hearing from them any day now. Some people have started getting acceptance letters for impacted majors.</p>
<p>Has anyone with the March 23rd transcript deadline been accepted (or denied)? Or have you seen your status being updated to transcript received. Mine still says transcript required from my CC. I guess I have to call them.</p>
<p>keef, my deadline for transcripts was Feb. 27, and I still am waiting.</p>
<p>I have a feeling that acceptance will be based on the order that people got their initial review letter and got their transcripts submitted, as well as what program you applied to. I’m a psych major, it gets the most applicants and accepts the highest number of applicants (not % wise though.) </p>
<p>I’m not saying you wont hear back from them soon, but it’s likely going to be shortly after your deadline.</p>
<p>the awkward moment when you don’t know if you got into csulb yet or not… :/</p>
<p>My deadline for transcripts is March 23, 2012 too, but I haven’t seen an update in my transcripts. They sent me the initial round email on March 2 and i sent my transcripts in on March 5. I’m going to call them today to see if they received it, but just haven’t updated the system yet.</p>
<p>Ugghhh this wait is killing me. I just got my acceptance email from CSULA last night, then was admitted to Cal Poly Pomona this morning. CSULB was my top choice and of course now the last to let me know :/</p>
<p>Did anyone else get admitted earlier this month but not receive their admission email yet? I guess I don’t really need it, but I just would have liked to see it.</p>
<p>Hey guys I know when you transfer to CSULB, your credits transfer over but does your CC GPA transfer over as well? Or does it reset at 0.00?</p>
<p>tellmealready: It took 3 1/2 weeks for me to get the admission email after I was admitted. I think they are behind in updating things.</p>
<p>visom1,</p>
<p>It is still calculated into your OVERALL GPA. But you will also have a LBSU GPA (or wherever you go). That starts at zero. Once you get into upper division and into your major courses, you will then also have a MAJOR GPA.</p>
<p>So as a transfer you will have an OVERALL gpa, LBSU gpa and MAJOR gpa.</p>
<p>Your LBSU and MAJOR will start out at 0 since you have no units towards them. But those are also a part of your OVERALL gpa.</p>
<p>Thanks ndirish!
Is your overall GPA what you put on your resume is it your LBSU/MAJOR ?</p>
<p>Haven’t gotten anything from them, a friend of mine got wait-listed (we’re both from Ventura County in SoCal). He has a lower GPA and SAT than mine, mine is a 3.68 and a 1820. Any thoughts on my chances? The suspense is killing me… and I foolishly didn’t apply to any easier schools than CSULB (denied from SDSU, Chapman, and Emerson, waiting on NYU and LMU also).</p>
<p>Visom1,</p>
<p>It all depends. You can put whatever. Usually people put the higher of two. But if you are applying to graduate school after you graduate then some applications ask for both.</p>
<p>But of a job resume, you can put both or just the higher of the two.</p>
<p>Shainsworth: I think you still have a chance of getting accepted. My sat score was slightly lower than yours (1760) but my GPA weighted was higher (3.9). I was accepted beginning of February though. What’s your major? Do you live near csulb?</p>
<p>[Cal</a> State plans to freeze enrollment next spring at most campuses - latimes.com](<a href=“http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-cal-state-20120320,0,1841747.story]Cal”>Cal State plans to freeze enrollment next spring at most campuses)</p>
<p>This makes me even more nervous.</p>
<p>Thank you very much ndirish345!</p>
<p>I am incredibly glad that I overloaded myself this semester, so I can transfer. If I would have decided to put off one or two classes until the fall semester and hope to transfer in the spring, I’d be royally SCREWED. My anxiety has been horrible because it’s been so hard to get classes you need, and you can only HOPE that your GPA is good enough to make the cut at the universities. </p>
<p>It’s really very sad. I find it rather counter productive that they want to raise taxes and cut spending. I truly believe that the over all result is going to be BAD. Higher taxes= people spending less, resulting in lower tax revenues from sales taxes and businesses. Cuts to education= people being uneducated and unable to fill jobs that require higher education, thus resulting again in lost tax revenues… Not to mention the INVALUABLE aspects like keeping history alive, increasing tolerance, and opening up minds. </p>
<p>We all need to stick to our guns. It seems like it’s getting down to the “now or never” point to get an affordable and well rounded education.</p>
