Deadline: November 15

To accept your offer of admission:

1. Log in to  and select My�°������ϲ����� Student Center. Throughout your time as a student, you'll use this hub to review your financial aid information, register for classes, check your account balance, and more.
2. In the Admissions section, select “Accept/Decline.”
3. Follow the instructions to Accept/Decline Admission Offer.

When you accept your admission, you must pay the non-refundable enrollment deposit, unless you qualify for a waiver. You can pay the enrollment deposit via credit card (MasterCard, American Express, Visa, and Discover are accepted) or electronic check. If you qualify for a waiver, the online process will automatically notify you. Once you accept your admission offer, you will receive an immediate confirmation that your acceptance and deposit have been accepted.

It is important to understand that admission to the University is a multi-step process.  Our offer of Conditional Admission is based on the information you reported on your Supplemental Application.  As you would imagine, this information will need to be confirmed based on submission of official academic records, including college transcripts, test scores, verifications of degree, or military records.  Your first responsibility in satisfying the terms of your admission offer is to submit official copies of all requested documents in time to meet the published deadline.  

Once we receive your official documents, we will make a careful review of your academic record.  We will expect to see that you have met the minimum criteria for CSU eligibility and that you have accurately reported your progress towards meeting the lower division preparation for your intended major.  Some of the things we will be checking for include:

• The Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT):  
  Did you report that you are participating in the Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) as part of your application for admission? 
  If so, we will need confirmation from your Community College that you are in the correct program and that you intend to graduate prior to beginning your enrollment at �°������ϲ�����.  If for any reason you will not be completing your ADT as originally reported, please contact Enrollment Services immediately as this could affect your admission status.  
   
• Grade Point Averages:
  Is the grade point average you reported on your Supplemental Application accurate? 
  Based on your official college transcripts we will be calculating your overall college grade point to see if it is close to what you indicated.  Additionally, some programs require a minimum GPA for lower division course work in their major.  You will not be penalized for minor inaccuracies, but we do expect to see a grade point average that is competitive for your intended major.   
   
• Course Work Completed:  
  Based on your transcripts and/or test scores, we will verify that you have completed (or will complete) sufficient units to meet junior standing (60 transferable semester units/90 transferable quarter units) or better.  We will also review your academic record to verify that you have completed (or will complete) courses appropriate to meet CSU General Education requirements and Major Specific Requirements for admission.
   
• Course Work Planned:
  Courses you indicated as “Planned” on your Supplemental Application should be completed with a least a grade of “C” or better, but you should endeavor to maintain a competitive grade point average.  Please remember that courses should be completed in the timeframe originally indicated on your Supplemental Application; if you withdraw from a course in order to take it a future term, you may jeopardize your admission status.
   
• Department Approval:  
  Some Highly Impacted majors require submission of additional documentation directly to the academic department, and the admission offer is subject to the approval of the faculty.

The admission offer is conditional based on a review of your official records by the Office of Enrollment Services.  We will be communicating with you by email with the result of our review, so be sure we have a current and correct address for you, and that you check your email often.  If we find that an applicant is no longer CSU eligible and/or competitive in their major, then we may withdraw our offer of admission.   Please contact us at the Office of Enrollment Services if you have any questions or concerns at (562) 985-5471, or by opening an admissions inquiry online.
