CSULB FALL 2019 Transfer Thread

@taki123 my transcripts were automatically requested by my school, so I’m not sure when they were sent. I want to say it was sent around mid-February, and my transcripts were removed off the To-Do list on 2/28. So, you shouldn’t be too worried. You can wait until March 5th to call them. If you are truly worried though, it doesn’t hurt to call now.

@ashley31836 Did you receive conditional acceptance yet? When you receive conditional acceptance, they will request documents, at least that’s what happened to me.

@muzzles You got the provisional too right? That just means they checked our transcripts I think. So we’re pretty much in the clear unless we fail a class right? All my friends got the conditional email again not the provisional one I wonder why everyone is getting different emails. Maybe just because they have to check transcripts and it’s taking a while? Did you pay the 150 yet?

@lulu1115 I did get the provisional acceptance! Yeah, I guess it means that everything that we reported on the supplemental application is true and accurate, so CSULB’s offer is still valid. As long as we finish all of our classes that are required to transfer and don’t fail anything, we should be in the clear.

That’s super weird though, I don’t know why they’re resending conditional emails. I’m assuming it’s a system error or maybe a reminder to turn in documents? I don’t think anyone should worry too much though, the March 15th deadline is still quite far.

I didn’t pay the $150 deposit yet. Apparently if your eligible, the fee can waived. I turned in my FAFSA information on 2/29, so I’m hoping to get that. I’m also still not a 100% sure I’m going to attend. What about you?

Um, so I logged in to the Student Center and there’s a hold on my account. It says “Prevent all enrollment actions” in the title. In the instructions it says “Satisfactory completion of the terms of your admission offer must be verified prior to enrollment. Contact the Office of Enrollment Services (562) 985-5471”. The reason is “Admissions verification”.

Should I be concerned? I’ll call on Monday, but I’m suddenly very nervous.

@muzzles mine says the same thing I called last week and asked they said it fine doesn’t mean anything bad. Just means transcripts were checked and now you just need to wait until the end of the semester once we submit final grades, and they check those final grades. It just means we are on track right now, and just to keep everything in check. So not failing a class, or having a drastic GPA drop. But if we don’t go off track she told me were perfectly fine its a message everyone will get once their transcripts are checked.

@lulu1115 Ah, thank you so much! My heart dropped for a second when I saw that hold. What a relief.

@muzzles LOL The same thing happened to me! I was so scared. At least were good, and it doesn’t mean anything bad. Even the provisional scared me at first because nobody had it, and I was scared it meant my acceptance was rescinded or something. The school probably is sick of me calling. :wink:

I haven’t seen anybody else with my major, so I just wanted to add to this thread in case somebody in the future is trying to figure out their chances.

I received my acceptance email on FEB 15th.

Major: Recreation
Transfer GPA: 3.34
AA-T/AS-T: No
Pre-reqs: All pre-reqs completed as well as the recommended prep courses.
Golden 4: Completed, C (2008), B (2017), A (2018), B (2017).
Local Area: No. South Bay, El Camino College.

@muzzles Do you have all lower division done? Also, did you apply as upper division or lower division transfer?

@lulu1115 lol I’m glad we can take a breather now. All we have to do is worry about finishing our classes! To answer your question though, no I didn’t. I am finishing three required classes for my lower division this semester because I’m an idiot. I’m doing Calculus 1, Statistics, and Communications 101. I applied as an upper division though. Did you apply as an upper division as well?

@lupiewarrior My major is the same. Your the only other person I have heard taking that same major. Have you taken Physiology yet? I’m taking it now its apart of the lower division, but I’m confused if all lower division needs to be done before we transfer or not. Physiology is the last lower division class I have to do, but I keep psyching myself out and thinking the worst because it is such a hard class. I’m scared if worse comes to worst and I didn’t pass it or something what would happen? I’m doing good in it right I have an A but there’s still a few months of the semester.

I know I’m a little late, but here’s my stats lol.

GPA: 2.97
Major: Marine Bio
IGETC: Done

Still waiting: Cal Poly, UCSC

Pretty shocked I got in. Applied on a whim because I had a fee waiver.

My transcripts on the todo list says ‘initiated’, does that mean they received it but it’s not finished being reviewed? Because I haven’t sent mine to SJSU yet and it says ‘incomplete’ on there

Accepted 2/15

Major: Health Science- emphasis Community Health Education
GPA: 2.6
AA-T/AS-T? : No- have 2 AA’s and 2 certificates (CSU & IGETC)
Pre-reqs: Done
Golden 4: Yes, completed in 2017
Local: No
Applied: CSULB, CPP, CSULA, CSUSB
Accepted: CSULB, CSUSB

@lulu1115 how long did you get your conditional turned into provisional acceptance again? From the moment you turned in your transcripts

@taki123 Mine also says “Initiated” and I don’t know what that means. I emailed the contact a couple days ago and haven’t heard anything.

My son still hasn’t been admitted but then he only submitted his recorded audition 6 days ago. I hope he hears soon.

I submitted my transcripts on February 11th, and they sent me provisional acceptance on March 1st. Did you finish all the lower division courses for your major? Or are you taking some at CSU? @adreezybones

@ahadams7 did you take physiology yet? We have the same major. Just curious some people at my community didn’t take all the lower division for their major just prereqs, but I did I was under the impression we had too do all lower division before transfer.
