<p>I am a high school senior applying to the fall 2014 year. I have a 3.45 GPA (weighted) on a 4.0 scale, I got a super score SAT of 1820, and an ACT composite score of 27. I was VP for 2 years of a 4H group (volunteer organization) and secretary for 1 year. I work as a camp counselor over the summer at a horse camp, and I give horseback riding lessons. I don't play a school sport, but i have been horseback riding seriously for 4 years, and competing. My biggest concern is that I live in New York. My dad lives in California (Huntington beach) about 1-2 hours from SDSU. What are my chances?</p>
<p>Not sure if you’ll be an i state aplicant or not. SDSU (and all the CSUs but SLO) uses a simple formula to asses your aplication. Jobs, sports, ECs don’t matter at all. They take your CSU GPA, multiply by 800 and add your Math and Reading SAT.<br>
There are some nuances to the way they calculate your GPA (like no +/-) that can have a big impact so, use this format to calculate yours.</p>

<p>With a 3.45 GPA and 1200 M+R SAT, you’ve got a CSU Index of 3960. The threshold for in-state aplicants was around 4100 this year. Out of state aplicants, probably 100 higher so, it probably won’t get you into SDSU. Like i said above, use the tool to calculate your index to be sure. Long Beach and Chico are probably also worth a look.</p>
<p>CSUSB should be considered also.</p>
