Admitted Business Adm Major! :slight_smile:

just got rejected from psych :slight_smile:

i did have a 4.0 but it was only for one semester (one year transfer) + didn’t have a lot of ECs in college + i was missing a couple classes so i probably wasn’t as competitive enough as an applicant :’) felt like it was a tossup being honest but it’s okay i do have an acceptance to that one CSU so
