@mattmhs I actually found out back in December! I know others who haven’t heard anything yet either though, and from previous years some students I’ve spoken to said it took a while to hear back for them as well!
@heyheyheyyy Have you SIR’d already? I have gotten accepted too as a psychology major back in December but I’m really debating between Fullerton and Long Beach.
@DarthRadec09 I haven’t yet! I also got accepted to Long Beach so I’m on the same boat, but I’m leaning more towards Fullerton personally! I say try and imagine yourself at each school, with all the opportunities they offer, and choose the one that feels right in your gut. Whatever decision you make is the right one !
@heyheyheyyy Thanks for your feedback! They both really are good schools which makes it very difficult to decide, but I kind of have that feeling that I would be much more comfortable at Fullerton than LB.
@CSUADTHopeful I got accepted to CSULB too! I hear their Psychology program is really up there apparently.
Been watching this list for a few months. Thought I’d finally add my name to the list of students waiting on a decision from CSUF for Fall 2017. I applied mid-November. I’ve completed several to-do’s by sending them transcripts from my previous colleges and the latest official transcript from FCC, as well as walking in my Fall grades. One to-do left: waiting for Spring grades, which happens to be the last of my Golden Four courses. My ADT will not be complete by end of Spring but at the end of Summer, so it might not count. I’m hoping they consider my last 2 years over the previous 30 years of poorly attempted college work. I am a different person with a more positive attitude towards academics than I was as a young student.

This group thread has provided amazing support for all applicants to Cal State Fullerton and other schools. Great job everybody, and thank you!
Best of luck =)
@Zygole CONGRATS!! That’s great news! I wish I applied to CSULB now My thing is I’ve visited the area several times and have been on campus, I just didn’t see myself at that school. I feel it’s important to see yourself in the area if you will be living there for the next couple years. It is a fantastic school though! I would definitely keep them in mind when making a decision
@TooOld4College Congrats on going back to college and coming back stronger with your GPA! I think they will consider the cumulative GPA and really focus on how you have done in your major classes, rather than your general education classes. If for some reason you get denied I would consider an appeal, that will give you the chance to explain yourself. That is if Fullerton is your #1 choice, I would fight for it if I were in your situation
Thanks @CSUADTHopeful for the strong encouragement and advice! CSU Fullerton is my #1 choice. I also applied to Cal Poly, Pomona, but live a few miles closer to CSUF. The business-side of me believes CSUF would offer a more suitable program for management in BA, but the techy-side of me still likes to get his hands dirty, hence why I applied to the CPP BA Tech & Ops program. Regardless, I agree that it would be worth fighting for through an appeal, if necessary. I will most wholeheartedly do so if such is the case and would post-back to this forum with the outcome.
@TooOld4College I guess it depends what you want to do specifically with your career, sounds like CSUF is the better choice from how you replied. Sounds like you are more passionate toward CSUF & definitely keep us updated here! Best of luck!!
Does anyone know if Fullerton sends the acceptances in waves or is it just kind of random?
@mattmhs I have no idea, but I’m curious as well. I’m already extremely anxious for April 22nd to come and it’s barely the 1st of the month lol
@CSUADTHopeful same ! My friends who are down there already are talking about getting a house/apartment and I’m still here wondering if I can get in lol. It’s driving me crazy
I’m having a hard time believing this but I just received an email from them saying “we hope to have all decisions by May 15th” !!! I have to hope that it was a typo and they meant April 15th.
I hope not that late!!
We should all keep calling till they get this handled
@mattmhs SAME! I may be moving in with 2 friends if I get in but I need to know if I’m in first! It’s driving me insane that I don’t know what I’m doing with my life yet lol
@homemadehitshow REALLY?! Omg I’m gunna die… I didn’t get that email. The suspense is killing me
I emailed specifically, it was not a generic email, I wrote to a name I have that helped me with a different issue and this was the response “We are aiming no later than May 15th” It makes no sense.
Ohhh I thought it was an email they sent to all transfers and I was kinda worried I didn’t get it! But you emailed personally lol my mistake! But goodness… Too long @homemadehitshow
Personally I think it was a typo but maybe I am just being optimistic.
