<p>I attended a CSU my freshman year and totally blew it by partying and smoking way too much. I was disqualified as a student their because my GPA dropped below 2.0, they required me to attend/pass Open University classes without financial aid to raise my GPA. I don't have the money to this, so I am currently attending a CCC back home. I want to transfer to a different CSU for personal reasons. </p>
<p>Do you think it is possible for me to transfer to another CSU, with the GPA from my first college still horrible?</p>
<p>Or do you think I should attend Open university and pay for all my units without financial aid?</p>
<p>If you want to transfer to another CSU, you will need to treat the process like any other transfer student would.</p>
<p>1) You need at least 60 transferable units including the “Golden Four” (Math, English, etc)
2) Your TOTAL GPA needs to be reasonable enough to get into your target CSU</p>
<p>Once you have more CCC units than CSU units, I believe you then qualify for as a “local transfer” to whichever CSU is considered local area to that CCC you are currently attending. This is important, because as long as there is space at your local area CSU, you can get in if you have the minimum gpa (often around 2.6).</p>
<p>For non-local CSUs, you need to research what the GPA cut-offs are for whatever major you are applying to get into. These will range anywhere from a 2.6 all the way up to 3.7+, so which CSU and which major is very critical.</p>
<p>If you can get your GPA up to the right range, yes, you can get into some of the other CSUs. The CSUs look ONLY at total GPA for ranking (with consideration for Local CCCers first, Non-Local CCCers second, and everyone else last).</p>
<p>To figure out your local area CCC to CSU transfer area</p>
<p>Where you able to transfer? I’m in the same situation, I’m transferring back now to a different csu but I’m afraid they will denied my admissions when they see my transcript from my previous csu</p>
