Selection Process CSUF is impacted at the FTF level across all majors. For Fall 2013, it is expected that ALL applicants will need to surpass minimum CSU
eligibility. The CSUF admissions process is deadline driven. Missed admissions deadlines may
lead to a cancelled application or rescinded admission. This includes but is not limited to the ELM and EPT placement exams (if required)
Prospective Division I athletes (men’s and women’s basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, and track and field; men’s baseball; women’s softball, tennis, and volleyball) are encouraged to register for a CBS College Sports Interactive account at www.fullertontitans.com. In addition, women’s dance team tryouts are held each fall
In order to be accepted as a music major, students must be admitted to the University AND must also successfully audition for the music department. www.fullerton.edu/arts/music/music_prospstudents.html

Admission Appeals
• At Cal State Fullerton our process is deadline-driven and we hold applicants to our stated deadlines. If a student was not offered admission, or if their application was withdrawn because of a missed deadline, it is unlikely that our decision will be reversed on appeal. However, if a student has significant extenuating circumstances and wishes to appeal our decision, they can download information on our process at http://www.fullerton.edu/admissions/appeals/
Counselor “Must Know”
Cal State Fullerton communicates with prospective (and current) students through their student portal. Information about accessing the portal can be found at http://www.fullerton.edu/admissions/Resources/forms/Student_Portal_First_Time_Login.pdf.
All admissions appeals must be received by CSUF within one month of the date on the "missed deadline" or "deny" notification / communication from the Office of Admissions.
Students appealing a residency decision should contact the Residence Specialist at (657) 278-2396 or [email protected].
Responses to appeals will be provided to student within 3-4 weeks of submission, by electronic communication only. It is the student’s responsibility to watch their portal.
Early Start Program (ESP) Students Required to Participate in Early Start
Notes: Please note that students may be told they need
to participate in ESP based on SAT scores, but satisfying the CSU placement test requirement is still required.
$182.00 per unit plus any additional campus fees If a student is not planning to attend CSUF, but
wants to utilize CSUF for ESP fulfillment, it is recommended that they only complete Early Start classes as there may be disagreement between CSUs on remediation.
Early Start Only classes are offered online however courses that meet ESP requirements and remediation or partial remediation are offered in both online and in person settings
