<p>i know various rankings have different critieria for their selections and are very subjective. But i was looking at their 361 best colleges list. of the CSU's listed it only had Cal Poly SLO and SOnoma State ranked...i know Cal Poly is a great school, but i was surprised Sonoma was listed, since ive heard SD, Long Beach, etc are rconsidered better schools. are CSU schools in a teired system like the UC's? would these be ranked top tier CSU's?</p>

SDSU
Long Beach
