<p>GOOD NEWS TO YOU ALL…</p>

<p>I just spoke with an admissions officer at Cal regarding the average GPA admitted this semester, so far, for transfers…First of all, she clearly expressed that the GPA is not the only important criteria and that ALL aspects of the application are taken into consideration; however, to our content, the average GPA thus far has been a 3.6!!! </p>

<p>And, I was sure to ask her that it was for the MAJOR and not just L&S!</p>

<p>EXCELLENT NEWS – I hope she understood my questino correctly and that 3.6 GPA is true because if so, it looks like we all have a pretty excellent shot!</p>
