Many of these Cal States are heavily impacted, meaning that your admissions decision could go either way.
The CSU’s admit by eligibility index and major (except SLO which uses MCA Score).
Your EI is 1006. (CSU GPA x200) + (ACT comp x10).
CSCI: Safety
CSULB/SJSU: Match
SDSU: High Match
UCSC: High Match-Low Reach (assuming Business Econ- No Business major)
UCSB: Reach (assuming Econ or Econ/Accounting)
SLO: Reach (Around a 16% acceptance rate for Communications).
You are fine for most of the CSU’s but for SLO your stats are below the average along with a low acceptance rate for Communications.
UCSC and UCSB do not have traditional Business majors so are you are applying to Business Econ or Economics?
Freshman admit rates for UC GPA of 3.40-3.79:
UCSB: 13%
UCSC: 47%
