Who is a Tier 2 applicant?
First-time freshman applicants who graduate from a California high school outside CSUN’s Local Guarantee Admissions Area are Tier 2 applicants. To be considered for admission, Tier 2 applicants must meet the additional admissions requirement of achieving the higher CSU statewide eligibility index. Admissions requirements for all freshmen applicants, including those in Tier 2, are described at I Want to Apply.
