Just to note my son applied on the application deadline date. His 4 friends/classmates applied around 6-8 weeks before him, all had heard back in February. One was offered honors program.

Hello. My daughter was just admitted for English major. We found out Friday. 3.86 UW, 4.42 W, IB student. A few APs scoring 4’s and 5’s. Did not take ACT or SAT since all schools interested in were blind.
Question: Is the in person Open House for admitted students on April 9th more comprehensive than the admitted students tour? Will she be able to see dorms at the Open House… it doesnt say.
Thanks!

Wonderful! My S got in for CS, but his first passion is all things audio recording and playing music (he’s a metal rock musician/fan) so I thought hey, if he ends up hating CS he should know this major exists! I sent him their website already but thanks for the stats/info! Best wishes to your son, the program sounds phenomenal!

The Open house should have tours of the dorms. You could call the housing office to confirm. Contact | SDSU
Either the Admitted Student Tour or the Open House will give your student a good overview of the SDSU campus and activities.
My son preferred the Admitted Student Tour since we contacted his major department and we were able to get a more personalized tour of the CS Building and Facilities. This was several years ago so not sure this is an option currently.

Ah… thanks for the quick reply. The Open House is on a Saturday and the admitted tours are week days… so much more convenient for Open House. I will call housing per your advice. Is it first come first serve on housing contracts, or do they just assign? I know HC gets Zura, but I want her to act quick if its an early bird type of thing.

My D is in HC and would be in Zura, do you think that is also a first come first serve issue? We haven’t fully made up our mind yet, but dont want to be left out when she does

Asking for a friend who is too nervous to read all of this…. But has anyone heard on any decisions for nursing?

We have the same question. I tried to ask the housing people via chat during the virtual day on the 12th but it wasn’t clear re: WHC Zura room urgency.

Only One post of an acceptance for Nursing today. Very unusual that SDSU is dragging out the decisions. Usually there is a large wave including the Nursing admits. All i can say is hang in there (I know easy to say, hard to follow through).

My daughter just heard today- got into pre-nursing. Is that the same as Direct Entry?

Yes, most students are admitted in to a “pre-major” where they need to take specific pre-req courses and obtain a minimum GPA to continue as a full major.
freshmen are admitted directly into the BSN program and will complete prerequisite courses during the first year of study. Nursing major courses typically begin sophomore year.

Just got off the phone with housing and there is no first come first serve. They take into consideration how many per room you request, your study habits, other information before making a decision.
