<p>Ive been at cal poly - engineering for 3 years and im about 1 and a half years behind schedule and currently on ap. This is my 4th time on ap and i have about a 2.1 gpa. I really hate it here and i was wondering if it was possible to transfer to a sfsu or sjsu. And if so, do I have to completely start all over? Or will my courses transfer over? I am almost done with all my GEs according to the poly curriculum. Thanks for any help in advance.</p>
<p>A 2.1 might be too low, even for a state school transfer, and even though SFSU requires a 2.0 for transfer. What do you dislike about Cal Poly and why do you feel that SFSU or SJSU would be a better fit for you? </p>
<p>But, after three years at Cal Poly, you might just as well stick it out. That is a decision that only you can make, though. </p>
<p>SFSU will accept courses with a grade of a C or better, and not sure about SJSU, but they should be about the same since they are in the same system.</p>
<p>im just overall not happy here. i need to be closer to home. i have a lot of Ds, so from what you’re saying, those classes wont transfer over?</p>
<p>You should contact the transfer admissions counselors at the schools you would like to apply to. They will be able to answer all of your questions.</p>
<p>Often students find that the college/university they transfer to will not award transfer credit for classes in which they have earned less than a C. Be prepared to re-take any course that is required for graduation in which you do not have a C.</p>
<p>what about my GE. If i have completed that do you think I would have to do it all over?</p>
<p>D’s will not transfer. </p>
<p>Your GE’s depend on what the schools that you are looking at for transfer require for GE’s, so, if you met all of their requirements or not I don’t know. Look at their websites and do a comparison and then talk to adcons to see what will transfer or not.</p>
<p>If you transfer, be prepared to spend another two to three years, possibly, to make up for your D’s and to fulfill other degree requirements.</p>
<p>Also, any school that you transfer into is going to wonder why it took you three years to decide that you are not happy at Cal Poly.</p>
<p>Another, and maybe better option for you, would be to drop out of Cal Poly and enroll in a CC. Spend a year there taking as many courses equivalent to those that you got D’s in as possible and then apply to transfer. This will show that 1) you are capable of receiving good grades, and 2) that something about Cal Poly just didn’t vibe with you, which may explain the D’s.</p>
