<p>For a major like CJ, all the CSUs (except SLO) use the same index to rank applicants. It is a simple, weighted combination of your test scores and grades. LB (and some other campuses) use a different formula (that more heavily weights Math test scores) for science and technology majors. </p>

<p>You can calculate yours by following the directions here.<br>
<a href=“Cal State Apply | CSU”>Cal State Apply | CSU;
<a href=“Cal State Apply | CSU”>Cal State Apply | CSU;

<p>Note, they use a sub-set of your grades (10-11, only college prep classes, and ignore +/-) and cap you at 8 semester AP bonus pts. This can significantly change the result. Sometimes for better, others for worse. </p>

<p>As an in-state, non local applicant, you’ll need an SAT index of 3800 or ACT 910 to comfortably gain admission. </p>

<p>So, if 3.4 is your CSU GPA and you’ve got an M+R SAT of 1080 or an ACT of 23, you should be all set.</p>

<p>Okay so I submitted my CSULB app. On November 25th and I haven’t received an email so I can make my portal thing. What should I do? I hope I get into LB I have a GPA 3.2, non local and SAT 1260 act 17 & 18. I’m taking my SAT again on Saturday.</p>
