And we are STILL waiting! D23 sent an email to admissions and they said the decisions will keep rolling out through AprilâŠAt this point, I think sheâs pretty much over it. She had been interested in SFSU, but now that other college decisions are coming in and other colleges are actively engaging with her, their foot dragging has not impressed her and they are falling off the radar screen. Which is a shame, because I think SFSU actually has a lot to offer and could be a great school for her.
With an 85% acceptance rate itâs a pretty safe bet she will be accepted, so hopefully she wonât sour on SFSU, particularly if you feel like it would be a good fit for her.
Itâs much easier for smaller schools to be more engaged with potential enrollees than larger institutions for sure, but I wouldnât characterize it as foot dragging, itâs just a lot of applications that need to be processed (30,000 last cycle). But I know the waiting can feel interminable.
FWIW D23 was accepted early January - today she received an email that she qualified to apply for one of 20 Genentech scholarships for women in STEM that are fairly generous. If I remember your D23 is a STEM major as well? Sheâll likely hear about it too when her admission comes thru. Good luck!

Thatâs great news - congrats!
Mine isnât STEM - sheâs enviro, but more the policy side than the science side. Although I think she may have applied poli sci to sfsu? Thatâs OK, though, because she has the Cal grant which would cover a large portion of the tuition, so it should be one of the more affordable choices on her list - and they have a certificate program in climate issues as well as pre-law certificate program - so there are a number of things that make it an attractive option, in addition to the affordable price. But another one of her schools has been very actively engaging her and the more they do, the less interest she is feeling towards schools that havenât shown the love - even if the reason for that is understandable, it also sort of gives an impression of what it might like to be a student there dealing with a large bureaucracy? That may not be accurate at all - but thatâs how itâs feeling. We shall see - as I said, there are some real pluses to SFSU for her, and the price is right

My daughter is also still waiting on an answer. It shows her application under review since January 7th. She applied back in November. Has your daughter heard back yet?
Thanks
Our D23 received her acceptance several weeks ago. With an acceptance rate of almost 93% I canât imagine your daughter wouldnât be accepted - but perhaps have her check in with their admissions office? Good luck!

We are still waiting, tooâŠ
I also also waiting to hear back, I submitted my application to poli sci back in ocotober and havent anything. Starting to lose hope that I will get in.
Weâll likely all get inâŠeventually. But this long delay has done nothing to make my daughter interested in going there.
Finally officially accepted for poli sci!

S23 is considering Computer Engineering (he was accepted). These decisions are difficult!

I applied late November as a psychology major and still havenât heard back!
Maybe itâs an impacted major? Iâd call and ask. Our son was accepted in Feb as a CS major. Itâs one of his top 4 choices, toured the campus last week and really liked it. Dorm choices are great too!
