  4. ENROLLMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN California State University San Marcos will have very limited space for Fall 2010 admission due to the severity of the State of California’s budget and California State University enrollment management directives.  All applicants are strongly encouraged to make alternate education plans.  CSU San Marcos will accommodate new first time freshman and upper division transfer applicants from our local service area -- north of highway 56 in San Diego county extending to southern Orange County and southwestern Riverside County -- who apply during the CSU Fall 2010 priority application period of October 1 - November 30, 2009, and who meet all CSU minimum admission requirements and all other University requirements and deadlines for Fall 2010, which will be strictly enforced.  Prospective students from outside of CSUSM's local service area are welcome to apply for admission during the priority application period, however, CSU systemwide impaction will be utilized -- higher admission criteria, wait lists, academic program impaction, and other options -- if enrollment space is available for non-local service area applicants after local service area applicants have been accommodated.   www.csusm.edu/admissions

  5. FIRST YEAR ADMISSIONS PROCESS • CSU systemwide impaction will be utilized; priority will be accommodating local service area applicants (based upon high school of graduation) • If (depending on space availability) applicants from outside the local service area are accommodated, additional admissions criteria will be applied; criteria may include higher CSU eligibility index and GPA and/or school of graduation • Completion of all A-G college preparatory courses with a grade of “C” or better by the end of the spring term of the senior year • Meet CSU eligibility index based on ACT or SAT; SAT or ACT required for all applicants (taken by December) and received by February 1, 2010 • All requirements complete by end of spring term • Admitted applicants must submit Intent to Enroll and enrollment deposit by May 1st • Final transcript required by July 15th showing completion of all requirements www.csusm.edu/admissions
