The unofficial CSU mechanical-cohort grad-school planner
A planner for CSU’s 2024 mechanical-engineering cohort that organizes academic records and models graduate-recommendation rankings under different quota scenarios.
- For
- CSU 2024 mechanical-engineering students weighing graduate recommendation
- Worth noticing
- Competition estimates use 2027 department rules for a 2028 cohort; missing team order is assumed to mean first place.
Field notes
The interface offers selectable ranking bases, quota-pool views, student and competition searches, and CSV export. Its current model uses two academic years; the site notes that averaging weighted scores may be imperfect because individual credit totals differ. Competition projections filter events and award levels, take only the highest score within a competition category, and assume first place when team order is absent. Transfer students are excluded from recommendation calculations because their first-year records cannot be searched.
