It was tough getting denied from SFSU my #1 choice but, hearing from others is comforting. I didn't do my undergrad in SLP and don't know if the admissions committee favors their own and those that have all pre-reqs completed.
In addition to SFSU, I applied to CSUEB and SJSU. Anyone know anything about the program at SJSU? BTW, I saw there were two posters that were admitted to SJSU by e-mail on March 12!?! That was fast.
Many of the applicant pools overlap with the other CSUs as mentioned. If SFSU had 500, I wonder how many applied to CSUEB and SJSU? I think SJSU in a normal year receives almost as many for CD as SFSU if not more. I do know that last year there were 220 applicants for SJSU with 39 admits. SFSU states they normally have between 200 and 250. Now this year SFSU with 500 and all 38 admits had a near 4.0 GPA! I'm wondering if I stand a chance of getting in anywhere. With that caliber of student filling the majority of seats in class, it sounds like a fun 2-4 years...
Good luck to all!
