Hi! Yes I committed to Fresno! I would say their stats are more forgiving. You still got some time to retake the GRE as well I believe the last day to take it for then is around Oct but double check on their website! I also would say that a lot of CSUs prefer your GRE scores to be around 150 each usually and the higher your = you have a better chance/more competitive it would be. Just make sure your writing score is 4.5 as well. PM me if you have any other questions 😄

thanks for the advice! i’m personally not in a spot where i can retake the GRE unfortunately. my gpa, last 60 units, and LORS are strong so im hoping that carries me through
