In a predicament, need advice (Also is SFSU really a bad school?)

Transfer Students
1

<p>Hi all.</p>

<p>I am a aspiring transfer student from So. Cal. My GPA is 3.4 and I am going for Economics. </p>

<p>I applied to 5 schools for Fall 2012, 2 of which i was denied (SDSU and Cal Poly), 2 of which are still deciding (CS-Long Beach and CS-Fullerton) and my safety school that i got in (San Fran. State)</p>

<p>I keep reading about SFSU and hearing mostly negative facts. I am also currently located in San Diego and would have to move to the bay area to attend. So I am skeptical on whether I should go or not.</p>

<p>Here is where I need some advice. If I do not get into CS-LB or CS-F, should I simply apply for admission to more schools for Spring 2013 and skip SFSU altogether? Would it be a better option to attend SFSU a semester and then transfer away from SFSU to a better school in Spring 2013?</p>

<p>My GPA after this semester will be above 3.5 considering how things are going in my current classes, if this makes any difference.</p>

<p>This seems like a life changing decision I have to make and would just like to hear what some of you think.</p>

<p>I went to SFSU, I worked full time while attending full time so my opinion is a little jaded. So please only take it with a grain of salt. I found it to be completely a commuter college. They don’t really have dorms for even a fraction of the student body. It’s location is decent. The business school was very average not very impressive but it was one of their biggest programs. I was able to pass with a 3.25 average and work 40 hours a week just to give you a thought on level of academia. If you have any specific questions let me know. However I did attend about 10 years ago. And tuition has since tripled.</p>
