<p>CSUs do not consider your writing SAT as part of their admission criteria so the 440 in W will not hurt you. You have a CR + M SAT of 1130 which I believe is a little above the average for accepted students at CSULB in recent years. Your 3.97 GPA should be well above the average and is the strongest part of your application. CSUs get so many applications that I have heard that they basically just feed your GPA and CR + M SAT scores into the computer which determines where you rank as an applicant. CSU admission committees do not have the time or resources to wade through essays and ECs so it is pretty much your stats that get you admitted or not. One other thing that is important in applying to a CSU is where you live. CSULB received nearly 70,000 applications last year for about 6,000 positions and is considered an impacted CSU campus. That means that if you are not applying from their service area you will need considerably stronger credentials than applicants in their service area to be accepted.</p>
