Have you calculated your new gpa including those classes you took post graduation?
I had a low gpa and the advisor at cal state LA advised me to take the chemical dependency courses for a certificate at elac.. I started taking the courses even though I had already applied and got admitted, so I didn't have to take those courses lol :/
Csula said they will not even look at your application if your gpa is below 2.8 so I didn't apply there
Long beach has a minimum gpa as well but does not count post graduation courses towards gpa, so for them you won't qualify
Csudh and csun both consider courses after graduation and experience and letters.. The difference with these two is that they take a look at your application in contrast to lb and la who told me don't bother applying they will put my application aside w a gpa of 2.7
My background experience is good, 2 years in skid row working as a case manager
Anyway.. Don't lose hope, I got into both schools just shoot for it and while in the process try taking psychology classes, I took the courses to get the certificate as a recovery specialist (4) com college classes in psychology.. I took them just in case I didn't get in I had something to add to my next application...
Hope this helps! And gives you hope
