At its 1897 founding, San Diego State University was dubbed the San Diego Normal School, but it was renamed officially in 1974. Today, the 288 acre campus sees about 23,000 students each year. In state tuition averages around $7084, and out-of-state tuition sits at $18244. The university offers 96 different bachelor’s, 80 master’s, and 21 doctoral degrees. SDSU students take special interest in fields like aerospace engineering, aviation, finance, journalism and media studies, kinesiology, nursing, real estate, and many others. San Diego State University functions chiefly as a research institution, contributing pioneering research on pressing medical concerns such as autism, heart disease, and cancer. Highly esteemed as one of the nation’s premier entrepreneurial institutions, the university also earns widespread acclaim for its exceptional veterans’ programs. The SDSU campus celebrates diversity, with over half of its student body consisting of people of color. Over 60 Fulbright scholars have come from SDSU (a figure topped only by UC Berkely). According to Niche.com, San Diego State University ranks #9 among California’s Top Public Universities.

San Diego state is good (more like 40k with housing) The other ones...I don't think he'd qualify for much merit at all. Unless I am wrong (?) he is not good enough a student to qualify for much.[/quote]

I’m assuming he’s a rising senior. He needs to shake off USC and Claremont schools, and get excited about next tier CA schools. Needs to hustle to increase SAT score to mid 1400 and superscore. Unweighted 3.9 could easily bump up over 4.0. He’d provide updated transcript for RD schools with January 2025 deadlines. Same for waitlist or deferred apps. Only ED if he loves a school within budget 50k + merit. He should apply to 1 CA safety that he loves and 1 other sure bet. [/quote]

Aren't the Claremonts TO?[/quote]
