However, CSUEB does not have any of those engineering majors that he is mostly interested in, so it may not be a very good backup.
SJSU lists previous EI thresholds; see http://www.sjsu.edu/admissions/impaction/ .

My son started at Chico this year and so far we have been very impressed with everything we have seen there. The campus is beautiful and definitely has a residential feel. They are working very hard to get rid of the “party school” reputation. As a matter of fact, Money Magazine just ranked Chico as the highest of all the CSU’s by their criteria, and in the top 100 of 700 schools nationwide. It’s definitely worth a road trip to check it out.

I think after receiving admittance responses we could go visit it
For those who helped me out through this, my brother was accepted to:
UNR, NAU, WSU, Chico, SFSU, SJSU, Sonoma
Denied from: SDSU
He decided to attend SJSU. He already deposited and provided he passes his calc 1 class this summer he’s a direct admit to Materials Engineering. If he doesn’t, I think he becomes undeclared and then has to apply to it like verybody else.
Congrats and good luck
