Hello everyone, I'm thinking about applying to CSU East Bay, and I'd like to know about their GPA requirements. Is there a minimum GPA I should aim for to have a good chance of getting in? Any advice is appreciated!
CSU East Bay, being part of the California State University (CSU) system, generally follows the same GPA requirements as other CSU campuses. For California resident applicants in high school, the minimum eligibility requirements include a minimum of 2.5 GPA and meeting their "a-g" course requirements.
On the other hand, non-resident students have a minimum GPA requirement of 3.0 and must also fulfill the "a-g" course requirements. These GPA requirements are for unweighted GPAs calculated using only the "a-g" courses completed in grade 10 and 11.
However, it's important to note that meeting the minimum GPA requirement doesn't guarantee admission, while if you're below the relevant cutoff, your application could still be considered on a case-by-case basis.
For the most recent information about admission requirements, it's best to visit CSU East Bay's official website and contact their admissions office, if you need any clarification. Good luck with your application!
