Hi there! I'm really interested in applying to CSU Long Beach and I was hoping someone could give me some insight on the acceptance rate for the next admissions cycle. I'm trying to get a sense of how competitive it is. Thanks in advance!
Hi! The most recent data for the 2023-2024 cycle indicates that the acceptance rate was around 47%. Keep in mind that acceptance rates can vary from year to year based on factors like the number of applicants and the competitiveness of the applicant pool.
It's a good idea to review the academic profile of the recent admitted students to understand where you stand in comparison. Being a competitive applicant usually means having a strong GPA and a rigorous course load. Don't forget that, for the CSU system, SAT and ACT scores are not considered in the admissions process as they are test-blind.
Best of luck with your application, and remember to focus on demonstrating your strengths and interests while showcasing your fit for CSU Long Beach!
