My S20 has applied so I want to open a thread for others to discuss their application status for those applying as new freshman or transfers for Fall 2020. Once admission decisions start being released for SJSU, it would be great for people to share in this format:
Hello. Obviously I haven’t gotten a decision yet but I want to share my info as a reference point.
SAT: 1490
ACT: Didn’t take
CSU GPA: 4.08
Major: Computer Engineering
Other Schools: Let’s just say it’s 21 more schools
Other info: Being realistic, I’m considering this as my safety school. I applied/applying to other schools around it’s proximity, bring Berkeley and Stanford, and I like all of them because of the distance it is where my dream city is (Silicon Valley) where I’m hoping to engage in many internships to further pursue my dream of being in the forefront of all future technological advancements.
Santa Clara University, Web Design & Engineering (Accepted)
St. Louis University, CS (Accepted)
St. Mary’s College of California, Math+CS (Accepted w/ $29K annually)
University of the Pacific, CS (Accepted w/ $24K annually)
University of La Verne, CS (Accepted w/ $20K annually)
University of Portland, CS (Accepted w/ $27K annually)
Xavier University, CS (Accepted w/ $23K annually)
SAT: 1300 superscore, 1250 (single-take) ? ?
ACT: 27 (34 E, 25 M, 26 R, 25 S) ? ?
GPA (10th-11th grade a-g courses):
10th: English 2, Biology, AP World History
11th: English 3, APUSH, AP Seminar, Chemistry
Major:
1st: Computer Engineering
2nd: Industry Networks & Digital Technology
Eligibility Index, if known/calculated:
My CSU GPA was my actual A-G GPA (3.91) + .25 due to my location.
[(650 * 3) + (650)]/2 = 1300 SAT
[1300 + (4.16 * 800)] = 4628 Eligibility index

Entire University of California system
Cal Polys (San Luis Obispo & Pomona)
College of the Holy Cross
Franklin & Marshall College
Loyola Marymount University
Fordham University
Fairfield University
Gonzaga University
Lewis & Clark College
Seattle University
University of San Francisco
Anything else you want to mention:
SJSU is practically my safety school for Computer Engineering. I don’t have the chops for Computer Science however. ? ? My metrics and location make me a decent applicant for SJSU anyways. But to be honest, stats don’t mean anything to holistic admissions process at UCs and privates.
@DumbleDad quick question, when is that you received an admission decision from sac state as I believed that they were releasing decisions starting March 1st?
