@joooohnie I am a film major, cinema/ screenwriting and I applied to all 3 schools you mentioned for transfer of Fall 2020 semester. my transfer GPA is 3.37 and I highly recommend you complete the 5 pre-major film classes Long Beach requires as well as the 60 GE unit classes before you transfer as it will save you money and you will be on time for graduation. I got accepted into CSUF who focuses more on film/radio/broadcast side rather than cinema/screenwriting. I got waitlisted for CSULB sadly and was denied from SDSU. I only completed 3 out of 5 pre-major classes for CSULB which also applies for CSUF as well. SDSU transfer requirements is very different compared to LB and CSUF as SDSU focuses more on theater and production rather than film itself and cinema. Therefore for SDSU, you have to take some odd art classes and theater classes to satisfy the prerequisite for SDSU. I also would not recommend going to SDSU for film/theater as I’ve read in some forms (I forgot where I found em), but the film equipment they have is very outdated as well as the professors are very old school. Not to mention when you try to find an internship for film, they tend to be in downtown LA and the greater LA metro area. Kinda glad SDSU denied me as I would hate myself commuting back and forth between San Diego and Los Angeles just to complete the internship.
