<p>with a 2.98 GPA!!!</p>

<p>I was all nervous because I saw people getting rejected with like, 3.5 GPAs and the fact that it was crunch time since it's April 30th.</p>

<p>But I checked just now it said "CONGRATULATIONS" Weeee.</p>

<p>LoL. Almost sent in my SIR for CSULB. ^___^</p>

<p>Congratulations.</p>

<p>While your GPA is not stellar, it looks like you impressed with your pre-reqs, EC's, and essay. </p>

<p>Congrats to you. You did it! : )</p>

<p>Congratulations, Tizzy.</p>

<p>lolz I guess GPA isn't everything, I got a 3.7, necessary classes completed, and was rejected.</p>

<p>I think you cruely (new word!) raised a lot of hope among potential incoming freshmen waiting on their appeals, the GPA only exaggerates it. </p>

<p>Anyways, congrats. It seems two or more admissions officers saw something in you beyond GPA.</p>

<p>I thought to be eligible for a UC you have to have at least a 3.0. You got into a mid-tier UC too. Well, you were only .02 points off so I don't know. Congratulations though. =P</p>

6

<p>well she's says she's a transfer student so it may be different.
by transfer student, you mean you have already taken 2 years of college at another campus right?</p>

<p>Oh, I didn't mean to offend anyone. I was just so excited. =[ I apologize if i made anyone angry or something. I tried to delete/edit, but i wouldn't let me. </p>

<p>And yeah, I'm transfering as a Junior so it's a bit different. My counsler actually guarranteed that I would get in. He said if i didn't he'd give me lyke this 50 dollar gift card as a "I'm sorry" gift. Guess i don't get one now. xD</p>

<p>To the person who got rejected with a 3.7...Maybe it's the major thing? Did you major in something impacted? o_O</p>

<p>Heh, I didn't meant to say it was offensive or anything (I'm starting to believe my posts are negative >_>), just to point out the timing between transfer decisions and appeals.</p>
