Spring Term Eligibility

To be eligible for Spring admission, you must meet all CSU admission and Program-Based Admission requirements (if applicable to your chosen major) by the end of the preceding Fall term. You may not use courses from the preceding Winter courses to meet admission requirements for Spring admission.

If you are earning an Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT), you must meet all admission requirements by the end of preceding Fall term. SJSU will honor your degree if the ADT will be completed by the end of the preceding Fall term and matches your intended SJSU degree. An updated official transcript to include your ADT conferral information is needed as soon as it becomes available.  

Note that SJSU will accept grades of “credit” or “pass” in courses completed during the Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall 2020 terms and Winter, Spring, or Summer 2021 terms to satisfy:

  • The four basics skills course requirement
  • General Education course requirement
  • The requirement to complete 60 transferable semester units (90 quarter units)

You must earn a C- or better in courses completed in all other terms to meet the above requirements.

Supplemental Application

After applying on Cal State Apply, you will be asked to also submit the SJSU supplemental application in September. SJSU will communicate with you via MySJSU messages about this requirement. It is critical that you set up your SJSUOne account and check your MySJSU messages frequently for updates after applying.  

Returning Students

If you previously attended SJSU, please know that you may have additional forms to complete in addition to the Cal State Apply application. 

If you were disqualified from SJSU, you must complete the Petition for Reinstatement which can be found on the Reinstatement (Returning from Disqualification) page.
