https://www2.calstate.edu/apply/transfer/Pages/upper-division-transfer.aspx says that you need at least a 2.00 college GPA to be admissible to a CSU (higher if you are not a California resident). You also need at least 60 semester (90 quarter) credits as well as the “golden four” general requirements (listed on the previously linked page), plus prerequisites for your major (see https://www.assist.org ).

According to https://www2.calstate.edu/apply/transfer/Documents/cal-state-apply-transfer-credit-entry-guide.pdf (page 14), if your F grades were at colleges which allow replacement by repeating the course (i.e. if you repeat the course, the original grade does not count), then you may be able to raise your GPA by repeating those courses and doing well in them.

Impacted campuses and majors may have higher GPA thresholds than 2.0. https://www2.calstate.edu/attend/degrees-certificates-credentials/Pages/impacted-degrees.aspx can help you find out which campuses and majors are not impacted and should admit if you have a 2.0 college GPA. CSUB, CSUCI, CSUDH, HSU, SFSU, SSU, and CSUStan are not impacted for upper division transfers, but some majors may be impacted.
