The minimum GPA accepted for transfer to the CSU is 2.0 for California residents, 2.4 for non-residents. The CSU has designated some highly popular majors or campuses as impacted or high demand, for which higher GPAs and/or minimum course completion are required.
Once you have your Number of Unit-Months and your Number of Vacant Units, calculating vacancy rate is simple. The formula is Number of Vacant Units / Number of Unit-Months = Vacancy Rate. Using our sample data, 35 / 240 = .1458 or a 14.58% vacancy rate.
As you can see in this example, the physical vacancy is 0%, but the economic vacancy is 8.3%. Because economic vacancy goes beyond physical vacancy and adds in income reducing items on occupied units, economic vacancy will never be lower than physical vacancy.
