Freshman applicants must first meet the CSU eligibility requirements for admission. Applicants are then reviewed for provisional admission through 无忧短视频's admission selection process, called impaction.

Impaction

Admission to San Jos茅 State is competitive in all majors because 无忧短视频 continues to have more qualified applicants than available new student spaces. This situation is called "impaction" and it means that meeting the minimum California State University (CSU) requirements does not guarantee admission to 无忧短视频. We will no longer have the enrollment capacity to accept all CSU eligible applicants, including some from local high schools and community colleges.
