Default Re: G.P.A if your not going to grad school

Forgive me for this silly question I don't know much about all this. I go to a community college in california, my gpa is a horrible 2.6, what are my chances of transfering into let's say an out of state university like for example the university of oklahoma? (80% acceptance rate i read in a college guide book)

Is my gpa just too bad to get into any university?

sorry man but it's pretty slim. you'd be lucky to get a shot at a state uni. the 80% acceptance rate is more likely from in-staters. do you really want to pay out-of-state tuition for UO? granted it's not a bad school but i wouldn't want to pay 20,000+ but i guess if that's your only shot..

most transfers usually have high grades from a CC where the course load is much easier/weaker than that of at a real college. to even think about transferring to Cal or UCLA you would need at least a 3.8.
