Who is affected by freshman impaction?
Only first-time freshman applicants graduating from a California high school outside CSUN’s Local Guarantee Admissions Area are affected by impaction. Beginning with the Fall 2009 semester, these applicants will be considered for admission if they meet additional Tier 2 admission requirements. All other CSUN applicants must meet the standard CSU admissions criteria for their class level and academic program. For details, select the “I Want to Apply” link for your student group on the Admissions and Records home page.
