Congratulations @Magichour1814! Do you think you will end up going there, or what other colleges are you thinking about? 
I’ve also been accepted to Cal Poly Pomona, which I think I’d prefer of UCSB, but not sure yet. SDSU is my first choice, but I’m still pending 
@kippycap My 1st choice school is University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign but I get denied last tuesday. I applied special needs education but they said my gpa isn’t high enough. Even though I have a 3.56 UC GPA but UIUC only counted it to 3.1 I am doing the appeal now and hoepfully they will reconsider my application SDSU is a very good school! Did you apply UCSD? I am waiting for UCSD and UCLA now
