<p>Supposedly, today is the last day to get accepted into SSU for Fall 2010. I was Just wondering if there is anybody else out there who has not yet received their admissions decision. I applied October 22 and I expected my decision to come a while ago. They say that they review all applications in the order that they received them so i expected them to be reviewing late November applications at this time. Is there anybody else who applied around the time I did that has not received their decision yet? I am concerned that maybe somehow they missed my application. What am I supposed to do if by tomorrow I hear no word from SSU?</p>

<p>Hi Elena, I asked my son to check his portal after reading your post. He has not heard either and he applied on the very first day, 10/1! I would definitely call tomorrow if by the morning your status has not changed.</p>
<p>Some of my son’s classmates have heard already but not until recently. Good luck!!</p>
<p>That is so weird. I wonder if it is possible that some applications got overlooked, if possibly there was a flaw in the system. I already spoke to someone on College confidential who’s son had applied Oct 5. and already got his acceptance, so there is no reason that I can think of as to why you have not yet received any news. This is making me so anxious!

<p>S is not anxious because he is leaning toward his EA from another college, but the process with SSU is surprising–first we were told he’d hear in February, then on 3/1 sent an e-mail that decisions would be made by 3/31 (you got that one too) and now, still nothing. </p>
<p>My guess is they were overwhelmed with a greater number of applications this year. Lots of kids at S’s school applied “as a backup” without any real intent to attend or interest. I hope things settle down and next year the students find a very good experience and more money from the State. This budget mess has really impacted the publics in CA–kids not getting into UCs that clearly have the stats, etc.</p>
<p>I’m sorry you have been waiting this long and I encourage you to call them tomorrow.</p>
<p>I got the same deadline extending e-mails. Sonoma is my first choice just because when I visited I could feel myself belonging there. I have felt that I should have a good chance to get in because I have been admitted to all the other colleges I applied to, but now I am not so sure do to this recent turn of events. I will definitely call first thing in the morning tomorrow and try to get things sorted out. Thank you for your support :)</p>
<p>We went on a tour today and thought it was great, but HS class of 2011.</p>
<p>I got in!!! The Admissions Counselor said that everyone should be notified by the end of today.</p>
<p>Congratulations ElenaMarie! Your wait is over and you got what you wanted!! Time to celebrate!!</p>
<p>Other than the email from the CSU Mentor confirming that my son’s application was submitted (in October), my son never heard a word from Sonoma State. Not a problem, he’s committed to his first choice school, but we thought it was odd that he never heard one way or the other. Anyone else in that position?</p>
<p>same here vballmom. S got an e-mail on 3/1 saying it would take till 3/31 to review applications due to the increased # of apps. He never heard anything after that and also decided on another school like your S. I found it very odd too but I’m happy he chose the other school.</p>
<p>It’s May 1 and S’s acceptance to Sonoma State just arrived in the mail, dated April 30. Response due by May 7.</p>
<p>Similar situation here. S’s acceptance to SSU was just received via e-mail today!</p>
<p>My boy has been admitted but also is coming in to play a varsity sport, so that might have been a factor. I spoke with an admissions official on Friday and the official said they had over 12,000 applications and were admitting 1,600. What undoubtedly is going on is that a lot of kids put Sonoma as a back up and Sonoma is waiting to send out final notices when they see how many that already have been accepted actually make their required deposit, which the deadline for submitting was Saturday, May 1.</p>
<p>I think i got lucky in the middle of April my dad had me take the initiative and call the admissions to see if i got in…I did and since then i think im ahead of the pack since i already have my housing done…I am sorry for anybody who got their acceptances so late</p>
