<p>Hey, I am an international(first year) student who loves sjc very much!!! SJC is definitely my first choice so I am thinking about applying to sjc in regular spring. I have several questions. The information on school website is not enough for me.
1. Is there a disadvantage if I apply as an international student to regular spring freshmen? Or are there any international students in January Freshmen?
2. I could only try my best to submit the application before Nov. 15. How soon can I know if I am admitted? The sjc.edu writes 2-3 weeks usually, will the AOs get quicklier since now is November. But I am afraid the visa to America cannot be arranged so soon since I have to go there in January?
3. Is the competition to regular spring competitive, compared to regular fall? I heard sjc has really high admission rate, about 80%, is it true?
4. Anything to add about regular spring or santa fe campus!
I really want to go to sjc!
Thank you very much for answering~ ;) </p>
I am in SJC now. Glad I make my decision to come.
- there are at least 6 international students ( within 26 JF in total) this spring
- usually 2-3 weeks from submitting regular spring application. But time is really urgent fro intl students. So work on visa stuff as soon as possible.
- spring admission rate and that of fall are quite the same. SJC students are very much self selective and people here are very motivated.
I guess to show how much you love the school is important in admission.
