Cal State System Shrinks Enrollment

High school seniors are being rejected in record numbers this year from the Cal State system…really? why? The Cal States have decided to shrink enrollment because they claim to not have the money to hire enough professors to serve the students. Adding to the problem for high school students is the fact that Cal States have “local areas”. Put simply, if an applicant lives in Los Angeles, loves the beach and wants to attend San Diego State…he will need to have better grades and test scores than his surfing buddy from Newport Beach. Really? Our taxes all go to Sacramento?? So be sure to apply to some Cal States in your local area…oh yes and based on the information in the article, this is not a one year happening…3 to 4 years in future.

Perhaps most important for the entire family, the Head Start College program paces students to complete their applications by Thanksgiving.
