I'll be applying to Cal State East Bay soon, but I'm not sure about their application deadline. When is it due, and do they have early action or early decision options?
Cal State East Bay, like other California State University (CSU) schools, has a specific application period. For the Fall semester, the application window is generally from October 1st to February 15th. It's important to submit your application within this window, as deadlines for CSU campuses can be strict. Keep in mind that these dates are subject to change, though, so it's always a good idea to check the Cal State East Bay's admissions website for the most up-to-date information.
Regarding early action or early decision, Cal State East Bay and other CSU campuses don't offer these options. Their admissions process is primarily based on rolling admissions, meaning they review applications as they come in and send out decisions on a continuous basis (usually 8-12 weeks after the application was received) until all spots are filled or the deadline has passed. You want to submit your application as early as possible, as that means more spots are still available, and you're more likely to receive a decision earlier in the process. Good luck with your application!
