Is this a good college list for a Mechanical Eng. transfer student with a 3.07 gpa?

<p>San Jose State, and CSU Pomona are your best bets. </p>

<p>Most of the CSU’s have a minimum HS GPA requirement of 2.0 GPA. You have college credits which will look better, plus a 3.0+ is a decent GPA. That being said though, competition among public universities in California is fierce right now, and many of the majors at both UC and CSU schools are impacted due to budget cuts. </p>

<p>You might want to look at UC Riverside while you’re at it. They are one of the less- competitive UC schools with an engineering department, but even so it may be difficult getting in.</p>

<p>Try looking outside of California if you don’t have any luck. UNLV has an ME program, and you will likely face less competition getting in compared to California schools. NAU in Northern Arizona is another option.</p>
