<p>Are you in SFSU’s “local” area? Meaning, completing the majority of your cc credits in the couple of counties surrounding SF? (I forget exactly which ones, but I think it includes Contra Costa and Santa Clara.) If so, you might have a remote shot with a 2.6.</p>
<p>If you are non-local in terms of county of cc residency, you have almost zero chance. Non-locals are having a hard time getting in (last to be chosen other than OOS students) and it is competitive.</p>
<p>Put another way, this year 2.6 was the rock bottom that many CSUs accepted for transfer this year (SJSU for example had a cut-off requirement of 2.6 for many of its majors, no matter where you started out cc-wise). Also, meeting the rock bottom requirements of 2.0 / 2.4 or 2.6 is no longer a guaranteed spot like it was in the past.</p>
<p>I expect the competition and the requirements to be even tougher next year for transfer students.</p>
<p>As for the advice on checking out collegeboard.com’s stats, I think those are too generic and out of date. One is better off digging around for very specific GPA cut-off lists from this last batch of transfers (Fall 2010) and keeping abreast with CSU impaction updates for Fall 2011 (on both CSU’s websites and the actual individual CSU’s in question websites).</p>
