CSUF acceptance letter?

prishy · 12-07-2008, 03:33 AM

First off, I'd like to say I've never been to this website before and if I'm posting this in the wrong place, I apologize in advance.

CSU Fullerton is my dream school. I applied to CSUF in October but I have no clue if I've receieved the acknowledgement letter or the acceptance letter.

I do have, however, two letters. One has my CWID ID and PIN. The other has the basic information and admission requirements for First-Time Freshmen. I thought this meant I was accepted because it states that I'll be needing to take an English Placement Exam in 2009.

A friend of mine has a cousin who goes to CSUF currently. I asked her to ask her cousin about the acceptance letter and apparently, hers said "Congratulations, you've been accepted to Cal State Fullerton!" Or something along the lines of that. I'm nervous because I haven't receieved that letter.

So, the big questions are, how does the acceptance letter actually look like? When will I receieve it? Where can I check (online, perhaps) for my application process? And any other words of comfort for a nervous college-freshman-to-be.

I got my acceptance letter about a month ago, but I applied on the first day applications were open. Your friend is right, it just reads 'Congratulations! You've been accepted to Cal State Fullerton blah blah blah". It comes with the letter itself and a bright orange piece of cardstock about orientation. Hope that helps. Good luck!

i applied october 1st and got the letter less than a month after that; however, i checked my admissions status online several days before i got the letter.

to check your status:
log in at fullerton.edu => "New Titan Online" (top toolbar, towards the right) => Student Center => Application Status (at the bottom of the page) => View detailed information for this application

I got accepted this saturday,
the letter says congradulation you have been admitted to CSFU
which is kind of weird since I applied on Nov 25 and this letter is sent out at Dec 03, obvious they have not receive my sat nor act score, and my gpa is kind on the low side, guess I got lucky

Alright I got there acknowledgment letter but online where it says admission status, it states that they haven't made a decision yet.On the to-do list it tells me to send the official SAT report card and my transcript with my 1st semester senior grades.

I'll get accepted right?This school is kind of my back up school and it'll be sad if I don't get in.I'm really worried and frustrated right now cause all my friends got in a week after they submitted there applications.I'm worried that my math is holding me back cause the minimum requirement is 3 years of math and I only passed Geometry and Algebra II, I failed Pre-calc last year and I'm not sure if I can pass AP stats this year...I currently have a 68% in the class and finals is in a couple of days. I did mention I took Algebra I in 8th grade but i'm not sure if they count that.

I have a 3.53 GPA
490-Math
580-CR
520-Writing

My GPA and test scores are above the average accepted last year.

Im in inglewood which is around 20-30 min or so away from the school so id say im pretty close. All ive gotten so far was a letter with my ID and PIN. Im hoping to get an acceptance!
