@loverofstitch I called csulb and they said you can only activate it 3 days after being accepted

@Tc2018
I’m not sure where the EI lands each year for undeclared major, but based on your score its been pushed very high(this year) because of the lack of space available after all the locals are accepted to undeclared. theoretically, there might be zero spaces if Local uses that total allocated % for undeclared.

Congratulations to all! My DD was denied…she applied under Pre-SLP. Honestly, I’m not too surprised given the competiveness of CSULB in general.

@socalmomof4 Was denied too and thought I was a competitive applicant but agree. At least I saw your daughter has tons of other offers from other great schools. Best of luck.

can ik your stats and what u applied for plz? @socalmomof4 @chustinio

@orionary and @Tc2018: Here is what CSULB considers their local service area. Just because you may live close does not mean you are “local” for CSULB.

Also, meant to say–she didn’t receive an email, she just checked her portal in the last couple of hours. It was still saying ‘minimum requirements met’ this am.

@Gumbymom sorry I worded my question wrong because calstates said that they would accept people into undeclared as an alternate major because I applied for nursing (I know very competitive) and I was just rejected. I wasn’t offered the undeclared as an alternate

My DD is from local schools with CSU GPA 3.76 SAT 1460 for pre-Industrial Design and got rejected. Her has friends with higher stats also got denied and some friends with way lower stats got accepted to CSULB, she is very confused as her school counselor has promised them, as long as they graduate with 3.0 and not chose the highly impacted majors such as engineering, that CSULB is our safety school!

DD (in state, not local) still has not heard one way or the other. @jjkmom that is really disheartening to hear. I’m sorry that you were told that, only to have it not play out.

Accepted. CSU GPA 4.25 sat 1510. Engineering major
