@themonmon123: Computer Science and Software Engineering are separate majors at SLO.

The quoted acceptance rates are based on target projections from last year but SLO does not publish the actual acceptance rate by major. Also much depends upon yield. My calculations are based on a 33% yield which may or may not be valid.

Biomedical Engineering historically has a lower acceptance rate than Software Engineering but higher than Computer Science.

Everything depends upon how you compare to each applicant, applying for each specific major based on your MCA points along with the # of applicants.

The following are the posted projections for 2019
For CS, target # of applicants was 5378 and spots available 100.
For BME, target # of applicants was 1929 and spots available 75.
For SE, target # of applicants was 492 and spots available 75.
