Note: The department evaluates completed admission applications as they are received. Applicants who meet all of the admission criteria and submit all application materials early in the application process will have a higher likelihood of admission.

  • Application cycle = Oct 1 through June 1 (or until all available slots are filled) 

    Admissions cycle = Oct through July 15 


    A waitlist: applies to the current admissions cycle only and provides no priority for future admission cycles. 


    • Admissions decisions are made on a rolling basis in the order that completed applications are received. 

    • A “completed application” includes all of the following: 
      • CalState Apply, 
      • Transcripts (be sure to also include any transcripts of accredited college coursework that was ever completed), 
      • Statement of purpose, 
      • Resume,  
      • Two letters of recommendation (on letterhead) 

    • Once our available slots are filled, applicants who have submitted completed applications will be asked whether they do not wish to be placed on the WL. 

    • WL position is determined by the order that completed applications were received. 

    • Admissions cycle concludes July 15, which is when we will no longer be admitting applicants from WL at which point everyone on the WL will be informed that all admission decisions have been made. 

    • If not admitted, instructions for reusing already submitted documents if the applicant wishes to submit a future application will be included in this final notification. (generally we will retain application materials for at least five years).
