Transferring to a CSU with one F.

Does anyone know if getting one F can cut out your chances of getting into a CSU?

It depends on your GPA and how many classes you have finished if you are a CC transfer student. I’m not sure about incoming freshmen as I went straight to CC right after high school cause my GPA was too low for CSU admission when I was still a high school student.

Are you doing an AA-T degree? If so, your transfer acceptance is guaranteed if you meet the GPA threshold for your major and satisfy all requirements. An F, in and of itself, will not keep you from being accepted. (But if it’s in a required class, you’ll still need to retake and pass the course.)
