UC capped weighted GPA = CSU capped weighted GPA
UC’s and CSU’s do look at Freshman grades but they are not part of the GPA calculation.
I think CPP is within Reach. CPP admits by eligibility index (CSU GPA x800) + (SAT Math + EBRW). They do superscore the SAT or ACT.
Once you determine your UC/CSU capped weighted GPA then you plug in your test scores to get your EI. They will then rank you based on your EI and major and accept from the top down. Your acceptance depends upon how you compare to all the other ME applicants.
Local in-service area applicants get priority but not a guaranteed admission for impacted majors.
