Fall 2011 Admission Process
First-time freshmen applicants are admitted to the pre-major
(including undeclared) in which they apply.
There is a limited number of enrollment slots in each pre-major.
Applicants will be ranked by their Eligibility Index, which is a
combination of GPA and SAT/ACT test scores.
Students must complete the pattern of college preparatory
curriculum ("a-g" courses) by the end of spring 2011.
First-time freshmen from outside the SDSU service area are
required to live in on-campus residence halls their first year.
Students are in SDSU's service area if they graduate from a high
school in San Diego County located south of state route 56 and
extending eastward AND Imperial County high schools.
Fall 2011 Admission Process
CSU Grade Point Average
All grades earned in the 15-unit college “a-g”
preparatory pattern of approved courses taken in
10th -12th grades are used to calculate your
grade point average.
Honors points for “A,” “B” and “C” grades will be
awarded for a maximum of eight semester
courses taken in 11th and 12th grades, including
up to two IB or AP courses, or honors courses with
11th or 12th grade content taken in the 10th
grade.
Fall 2011 Admission Process
First-Time Freshmen Eligibility Index
The Eligibility Index is the combination of the high school grade
point average and test score on either the SAT Reasoning Test
or the ACT.
The Eligibility Index is calculated by multiplying the grade point
average by 800 and adding the combined critical reading and
math score on the SAT Reasoning Test.
For the ACT, multiply the grade point average by 200 and add
ten times the composite score from the ACT.
SDSU does not include the writing scores from either tests in the
computation of the Eligibility Index.
Fall 2011 Admission Process
Fall admission is based on self-reported information and the
major to which students apply.
Students cannot change their major during the application
process.
Admission is provisional pending verification of the selfreported information on the application from official
transcripts.
Admission will be rescinded if the GPA, test scores or course
grades are lower than what is reported on the application.
Students must receive "C" or higher grades in all coursework
taken during senior year or their admission will be rescinded.

“Admission Status” section of the SDSU WebPortal.

Due to the number of applications SDSU receives, it is
unlikely an appeal will be granted. However, SDSU will accept
appeals, especially for extreme circumstances.

appeal, a letter from the student and any supporting
documentation should be sent to the following address:
University Admission Appeals Committee
