Hey guys, could really use some help here. I've been looking at Cal State Los Angeles and I'm curious about their acceptance rate. Does anyone have knowledge about this? Is it super competitive?
Cal State Los Angeles, like many of the California State University campuses, tends to be slightly less competitive than the UC system. While acceptance rates can vary from year to year, Cal State LA has an acceptance rate around 87%, which indicates a somewhat selective admissions process.
However, remember that these rates aren't the full story - the school would also consider factors like GPA and the rigor of your high school courses. And given that all Cal State schools are test-blind for the 2024-2025 application cycle, they won't be considering standardized test scores at all in their decision.
So, while the acceptance rate might seem a bit challenging, with a solid academic record and strong extracurriculars, you might have a good shot. Hope this helps!
