It looks like there’s no official discussion for this year and I was hoping this could be the thread where we all keep each other updated on admission status and our personal stats for getting in. I’m not sure if I am even likely to get in as I’m applying to an impacted major but I’m still keeping my fingers crossed as they supposedly have one of the best film programs out of the CSUs. Let me know if you guys have any similar doubts about getting in or if you can make some assumptions on my admission acceptance based off things you guys have heard from students/previous applicants/CSUN staff!
Status: Waiting
Major: CTVA - Multimedia Production

Golden 4:
B – Oral Communication
B – Written Communication
A – Critical Thinking
B – Mathematical Concepts
Also have been accepted to SFSU, but still waiting to hear back from CSUF, CSULB, and of course CSUN. SFSU might be the route I take if I don’t get in because based on all the articles and forums I’ve read it’s pretty comparable to CSUN and the weather is better? :-??
@mchoneybone CongratsI got accepted to SFSU too (for Industrial Design)! Also applied for CSUN waiting for a decision. On my CSUN portal though, i saw that I need to send in a final transcript for courses that were still a work in progress due by 7/15/2019. Do you know if this means I need to send one with updated fall grades and then another one when spring is over? Or do I just wait until spring to send in one final transcript for CSUN?
@rl2019@mchoneybone Hi, I also applied at SFSU as a tranfer student (major interior design), I haven’t heard back from them. I check my email and sfsu login portal as well. Did they already sent out admission decisions?
Haha take it from someone who goes to sfsu and wants to transfer to csun. No, csun is wayy better in terms of pretty much anything. Sf has terrible weather and nothing to do.
@ashley31836 what’s your major? I feel like it’s kinda subjective no offense but as someone coming from LA I’ve always found SF to have a lot more stuff to do than we ever do. I like the cloudy cold weather too ?
@gigidiamands they have sent out a good few from what I’ve seen in SFSU threads but I’m sure they’ll be accepting more soon. A lot of people have yet to hear back.
@rl2019 that’s awesome! I’d imagine that they’d only want one copy of complete transcripts to avoid confusion but you might wanna call their office of Admissions & Records and ask… the number is (818) 677-3700. They’re open from 10 to 4 on weekdays. If you do end up finding out from them be sure to let us know what they say!
@ashley31836 just wondering were you in this thread to contribute anything positive? I’m really sorry that you dislike SF and your experience there but I feel a really contentious and condescending attitude coming from you. Each city is what you make of it along with the schooling you get. SFSU is the only school I’ve been accepted to so far and I’d like to stay optimistic about it. I’m from LA too and I don’t care for it much here. If you have facts as to why CSUN is better than SFSU, I’ll gladly take your input.
@melyyg what kind of changes? I received an e-mail from CSUN today to activate my portal account even though it’s already active but besides that nothing had changed much.
@FLH98K you’re non-local! have you heard of any instances where people with GPAs lower than the 3.7 non-local requirement got in? I’ve found maybe a couple of people from other majors who got in with a lower than 3.7 gpa last year and the year before but i’m curious as to why they were the exceptions.
Um chill. all I was saying was my opinion about the school… which I am entitled to. Idc if you like sf or not. Good for you if you do. I’d sfsu is the only school you got accepted to, that’s fine! But I hate sf and I’m not insulting YOU by saying that so idk why you’re acting so butthurt lol
Changes as in under your checklist. It was asking me for transcripts due 7/15 and now it changed to transcripts received pending evaluation. Wondering if that’s the same for most people? @mchoneybone
@ashley31836 please note: I never asked for your opinion. This forum is for people who want to transfer to CSUN wondering about being admitted. Your input and attitude is negative and frankly i’m struggling to care about either of them.
I am a local with a GPA of 3.84 with the golden 4 all complete. I am looking to be accepted as a public health major but looking to switch over to biology. My status is applicant still, but it says they are evaluating my transcripts currently!
Good for you. I dont care what you think about my opinion. But I have the right to say it here and i will. So you can go about your way of ignoring me and stop caring about what I think. Because it seems like you very much do. Have a nice day
