Psychology is an impacted major at all the CSUs you mentioned, so you will need to meet other thresholds like GPA (found on the school’s websites) and you will have the best chances of admission for the CSUs that are in your service area as residents of the counties of a specific CSU have admissions priority for that CSU.</p>
<p>Also, have you been using Assist to cover the major pre-reqs for those CSUs?</p>
<p>
3.6 is a competitive GPA for UC, however Psychology is a popular major (hence the CSU impaction). Your CC should have a TAG with some UCs that you can attempt to complete so that you are guaranteed admittance to one (you can only do this for a single UC per year). Major pre-reqs on Assist and IGETC certification is highly recommended for the UCs.</p>
<p>You can post in the UC transfer sub-section of this forum for more UC specifics.</p>
<p>Yes I have been utilizing assist.org and all the courses mentioned in assist.org for my major I have taken or going to take within the next 2 semesters.</p>
<p>Then your chances should be in the higher end, and a more than great shot for the CSU in your service area. I would also recommend applying to at least 1 UC utilizing a TAG through your CC.</p>
<p>Looks like you should have relatively no worries with this plan.</p>
<p>I don’t think you’ll have much of a problem getting into the universities you specifically mentioned. Avoid CSULA, however.</p>
<p>3.6 I think would be good enough for most of the UC’s except Berkeley or LA (unless your major was non-impacted). Plenty of my friends have transferred to UC’s with 3.1-3.6 GPA.</p>
