so nervous and praying for this wait to end in some good news!!

any movement for anyone? I know ucsb had a waitlist movement yesterday.

My daughter was waitlisted with similar stats as yours - (also Sociology), except for a few more APs. She has committed to another school but I’m still curious if she’ll get in - for a last minute plot twist.

If she committed to another school, would be best if you declined the offer right away to allow the school to work through the waitlist for those who are still counting on sdsu as their committed school

She’s still weighing her options with a few remaining waitlists. But we had to SIR to a different school to be safe. But yes, she has already withdrawn her application from all the other schools. (everyone on the waitlist should be sure to get a SIR deposit in to another school by the end of the day today).

This is what my daughter’s portal said when we checked:
Waitlist No Space Available

Thank you for your interest in San Diego State University. Earlier this year, you indicated that you would like to be placed on the waitlist for admission in the event that admission spaces became available. Although your academic preparation and achievements are impressive, we unfortunately are unable to offer you admission to SDSU because all enrollment spaces have been filled. Please know that our admission decisions were made with great care and we sincerely appreciate your patience while waiting to hear about your status.

We wish you much success as you pursue your academic goals.

Our daughter’s portal still says:

You are on the waitlist


Thank you for applying to San Diego State University. After carefully reviewing your application, we are unable to offer you admission. We know how disappointing this news is and recognize the time and effort that you put into your application.

Your credentials are such that you have the option of being placed on a waitlist for SDSU admission. If you would like to exercise this option, please indicate your decision below by May 15. Being placed on the waitlist does not guarantee admission. Students on the waitlist will be notified in June if we are able to offer you admission.

We wish you success as you pursue your academic goals.

do you mind iOS I ask what you daughters major was ?

So sorry to hear this! This scares me for myself. What was her major?

My daughter just found out she was accepted off the waitlist this morning. From her portal - no email yet. Sociology. She has til June 15th to commit.

Received an update today from SDSU:

At this time, your application is still being considered on our waitlist. Following our May 15 Intent to Enroll deadline, we began to assess the number of spaces still remaining in our class. We will continue to do so in coming weeks by monitoring the number of students who register for New Student Orientation and those who let us know that their plans for fall changed. This week we made initial selections from the waitlist and gave those students until June 15 to accept or decline our offer of admission. We will provide another update to you after June 15 when we have a better sense if additional space remains in the class.
