Can you calculate your CSU/UC capped weighted GPA and then your Eligibility index for the Cal states?

https://rogerhub.com/gpa-calculator-uc/

Eligibility index: (CSU GPA capped weighted x800) + (SAT Math + EBRW)

You are in the ball park for the UC’s and Cal States but so are so many applicants for CS.

CSUN/CSULA/CPP: Safeties

Update your post with information I requested and I will give you my opinion.

Consider UCLA and UCB reach schools but you look like a competitive applicant for all the UC’s and SLO/SJSU. Best of luck and make sure you will be happy to attend your safeties.

@Dan123098: I cannot comment on out of state schools but you look like an overall competitive applicant.
