Many of my friends are receiving their acceptance letters to SFSU. Why is this? I know CSU’s send their letters out by mid January but why in December? They also did not apply for early admission.
Most likely rolling admissions (or something of the sort).
Their website says they respond within 3 weeks of when all application materials are received.

Some students have the stats, GPA and required coursework to be immediately admitted. Those are the ones who get their letters first.
