San Diego State University (SDSU) follows a structured admission process for prospective students. Applicants must submit an online application via Cal State Apply, along with official high school or college transcripts. Standardized test scores (SAT/ACT) are optional for most programs. The university reviews applications holistically, considering GPA, coursework rigor, and extracurricular activities.
Deadlines vary by term, with fall admissions typically due in November. Transfer students must complete prerequisite courses with a minimum GPA. Some programs may require additional materials like essays or letters of recommendation. After submission, applicants can track their status through the SDSU WebPortal.
