Not sure... I just want to know either way lol. So sick of waiting!!Does this mean that they're already, right now, sending out rejection letters? 🙁 🙁
I like that CSU looks at other things than numbers. It makes me hopeful for my low GRE score.Yep. My cum GPA is crap from my first undergrad.
Did you log in to your application account? I do not see a change in mine :-/Application status changed and I was notified my application is no longer under consideration. Good luck everyone! 🙂
Are you IS or OOSHi all, I'm new around here. I got a rejection from Colorado today as well. Waiting on a few more schools, Good luck to everyone else!
I'm OOSAre you IS or OOS
So returned to pool means you are still in the running, correct?I was Returned to Pool and I have a cumulative GPA of 3.1. Good luck to everyone!
Oh ok... I'm 3.5 OOS so I'm really scared. Not a great GPA for OOS applications and my IS (UF) is not easy to get into either.Yep, still in the running. The 3.1 is my overall GPA, and I'm fairly average in the rest of my application. I'm IS
Thank you 🙂 well I already received 4 rejections this cycle (applied to 9 schools), and so far no invites or anything else positive, that's why I'm a bit pessimistic when it comes to my 5 pending schools.3.5 is a good GPA, and if you're strong elsewhere on your application then you'll have a good chance of getting in somewhere. If not, there's always next year! (Can you tell I'm not the stress-over-it type, haha)
I'm guessing Colorado is your IS?!I was also "Retuned to the pool." Super excited after recently being rejected by 2 schools already. My cum GPA is 3.3 and Science GPA around a 3.1 depending on how they calculated it. This is a huge relief considering my Freshman year arrest for underage drinking and my low GPAs... I guess my extracurriculars/experiences and improvements starting Junior really paid off![]()

Did you receive an email saying that your status changed? I didn't receive anything and the online account is still unchanged.
Where/how did you find this out?This is the huge advantage of applying to CSU. They look at your GPA in trends, meaning they look to see how it has changed over time. So if you had a rough start, but really pulled yourself up by your bootstraps and showed major improvement over time, you look really good to them. 🙂. That was my problem. I started out very strong, but hit a rough patch that I am still repairing Junior year.
I know, but I'm freaking out... Especially after being rejected by half of my schools and no interview invite 🙁Not everyone's status changed. It's not a bad thing if you haven't heard anything yet

*hugs* it's always possible the other half will bring good news! Don't lose hope - it's far from over. Maybe try to distance yourself from it for a few days, do something you enjoy, remind yourself why you're an awesome candidate!I know, but I'm freaking out... Especially after being rejected by half of my schools and no interview invite 🙁
Wait, I just checked my application status and I don't see any change. Unless I'm looking at the wrong page? I'm OOS and have a 3.95 GPA, in case that makes a difference.
What is considered a down trend? I have majority 3.7-4.0 semesters with like one 3.4 and two 3.2 randomly in there...This is the huge advantage of applying to CSU.

I would say you have nothing to worry about GPA-wiseWhat is considered a down trend? I have majority 3.7-4.0 semesters with like one 3.4 and two 3.2 randomly in there...

Meet you both there! So excited!! Although January seems to be the worst possible month to visit CO for the first time...
Fort Collins actually wasn't too bad in January. Or at least coming from the east coast last year, when we were in the middle of a super cold spell. Really sunny and dry here, but I would bring a coat and boots just in case it gets cold. And the downtown is so pretty in the winter, they put lots of lights on the trees. You'll have a blast here! 🙂
Also if anyone is wondering, the rejections came this time last year, and I think acceptances/waitlists came out on the 20th. My status didn't update until the 20th for the vet school.
I got rejected on the 21st last year. lol. Thank you, CSU, for that Christmas present.
I guess my point is that just because you made it past this point, doesn't necessarily you can breathe easy. Not trying to be a debby downer, but I hate to see a bunch of people think, "yeah, home free!" too, and then get their rejection later.
You could email them and say your portal has not been updating, ask if it could be fixed.My application status doesn't say anything under "Recent Activities." In fact, it doesn't say anything at all. I haven't gotten anything in the mail yet. Does this look like I am not a first-choice candidate? I have no idea!
Okay, I will do that. I really want to get into CSU. I have applied to four schools and have only heard back from one (wait-listed for an interview). It is that time of the year to stalk the postman and check your email 20 times a day.You could email them and say your portal has not been updating, ask if it could be fixed.
So did your portal end up changing?You could email them and say your portal has not been updating, ask if it could be fixed.
I just sent the admissions office an email about it. I have a GPA of 3.59 so I am sure something would have shown up by now. I will keep you posted.🙂So did your portal end up changing?
That means.... I am STILL IN IT!!!! Hurray!If your GPA is above a 3.4 I don't believe the portal will change based on the end of phase 2 (myself and a few friends are in this situation and nothing has changed on any of our portals). I think at this point if you had above the 3.4 cutoff nothing will change until phase 3 decisions start coming in (this is our best guess though).
No my portal didn't change., I just meant that if she hasn't even been getting the updates about when they planned on making decisions, then there's probably something up with her portal.So did your portal end up changing?
Yeah, totally agree... Not trying to get my hopes up too much. Still glad I didn't get a flat-out rejection like I did with my other 4 schools LOLI got rejected on the 21st last year. lol. Thank you, CSU, for that Christmas present.

I applied to Kansas, too!!!All it takes is for one school to give you a chance. 🙂. I got outright rejected by 4 schools last year as well, but Kansas gave me an interview and a waitlist spot (making them my obvious favorite out of state lol). Hope is always a beautiful thing, as long as their is some realism in there.
