快活林性息

Our admission requirements for first-time freshmen include graduating high school or passing one of the California state high school proficiency exams, your high school GPA and more.听Because of the pandemic, all California State University campuses, are adjusting some requirements. Learn more at .

You will still need to complete the required college preparatory coursework, and meet our minimum Eligibility Index scores for California residents and U.S. applicants from out-of-state.

If you are an international student, please visit the International First-time Freshman Admission page to find information to help you apply.

Required Courses

The college preparatory subject requirements鈥攌nown as 鈥淎 to G鈥� in California鈥攁re below. You'll need to have completed these courses (or their equivalents if out-of-state) with a grade of C minus (C-) or better. Because of the pandemic, any credit/pass grades that you earned for A to G courses you took in winter 2020 through summer 2021 will be accepted as satisfying this requirement. Starting fall 2021, you must take A to G courses for a letter grade and earn at least a C minus (C-) grade.

Eligibility Index Scores

All California State University (CSU) campuses use the eligibility index as part of the first-time freshman admissions decision. The minimum eligibility index scores for admission to 快活林性息 depend on whether you're a California resident or an out-of-state student.

The eligibility index is the combination of your CSU-calculated high school GPS (HSGPA) and, for California residents, points awarded through five additional multifactor variables.

For California residents, your eligibility index can be met by:

• A to G Subjects HSGPA x 1,000
  OR
• A to G Subjects HSGPA x 1,000 + (Total Multifactor Eligibility Points)

The additional Multifactor Eligibility Points are listed below.

If you're听graduating from a high school听in California, the minimum eligibility index is 2500 or a HSGPA of 2.50.

A minimum Eligibility Index higher than 2500 may be required depending on your chosen major. Please see "competitive majors" below.听

All California residents can gain points from the multifactor admission criteria in the table above.

Examples:

• If your HSGPA is 2.50 or better, multiply your GPA by 1,000. For example, the eligibility index for a 2.50 HSGPA is 2500.
• If your HSGPA is less than 2.50, multiply your GPA by 1,000 and then add any points awarded for the multifactor admission criteria. For example, a student might have a HSGPA of 2.40, qualify for the Cal State Apply application fee waiver and have no parents who attended college. Therefore, add 2400 (GPA x 1,000) + 100 points (25 + 75), for an eligibility index of 2500.

Competitive Majors

Every year, some competitive majors receive more applicants than we can accept. This is called impaction. These majors will have higher eligibility index minimums for California residents. Programs and scores can change each year.

Out-of-State Students

For U.S. applicants from outside California:

• The eligibility index is your 快活林性息-calculated high school GPA (GPA) in the A to G equivalent subjects x 1000. As an out-of-state applicant, you must meet a minimum eligibility index of 3000, or a HSGPA of 3.0.
• You are exempt from impacted major criteria. As an out-of-state applicant, your required eligibility index is already higher than that for California residents.
