Good Enough for CSUF?

[silvercrystal1]

I'm an incoming high school senior who has 2 D's in Math Analysis (which I'll retake again this year.) I also have a 3.5 GPA and overall my class ranking is at least above number 20 (I was in top 10, but the D's will pull me down.)  I take honors and AP courses--so far I've taken AP European History (passed with a 3,)  AP U.S. History (passed with

CSUF is not a difficult school to get in to and with your track record, you can pretty much count the days until you receive your acceptance letter.

LOL yeah, you're fine babe, don't worry! Just remember to stay on them; the office of admissions folks are like hard as hell to get info out of.

Can't say I know of any science/english reccs, though. ): I'm going to CSUF for their Illustration program~.

The only problem I see you facing is that CSUF is slammed with budget cuts from the big guys up in Sacramento. Classes are being slashed and it is going to be harder and harder to get in as an incoming Freshman (versus transferring in as a Jr. / Sr.) All of the CA schools are facing this (UCI as well - they are even further in debt than we are.)

I'm not saying it's impossible, but it isn't as easy as it used to be because of lack of money. We are facing furloughs and layoffs, but that only covers half of the budget crisis. Good luck and keep in contact with people here (admissions etc.)

Okay, I'll keep that in mind. Thank you!

i know CSUF will take you with Ds on the transcript, whereas I know other CSUs wont. I had a D in one semester of AP Calculus and an A in the next semester of Calculus Honors, and I got into CSUF but not CSULA. also had about 4.0GPA and good SAT scores.

so that's good, right?
