Does San Diego State accept Spring transfers?

actually some CSU campuses have a guarantee program. Somewhat confusingly, it has the same name as the UC program.

Given that the OP sounds like he is not currently attending a San Diego area CC, though, this path is moot

Mom asks "BTW…with that GPA, what do you hope to do with a bio degree?? "

The OP’s biggest problem is not going to be the name of the school on the diploma. Funny how she/he focuses on this “dilemma” instead of the elephants in the room. I don’t know how much planning the OP has done regarding PA training (I suspect not much), but in about 3 minutes I found this:

Its wonderful to have dreams, but the OP doesn’t seem to have done much of the legwork in turning dreams into reality. With a tess-than-competitive GPA (that somehow is going to become a high GPA) and no apparent plans for getting relevant medical experience this seems like a plan destined to fail, sad to say.
