<p>so on the letter it says that 52,000 people applied for 8,822 available spots..with that said, only 8,822 people got accepted which is a 17% acceptance rate. hmm either im interpreting this statistic wrong or SDSU really is getting picky on who they accept?</p>
<p>lol, they accept more than 8,822. That's the number of spots avaliable, so they accept maybe 20-25,000 since not everyone is going to commit.</p>
<p>yes. it has gotten more competitive gotten more competative but 17% is harder than UCLA, i think the average is like 3.6 and 1100 SATs, which is pretty selective for a state school</p>
<p>the acceptance rate is the same though :-)</p>
