California State University, Northridge Enrollment Stats?

Does anyone have info on the current enrollment stats for California State University, Northridge? I want to have an idea of the student population size, how many freshman they typically admit and if possible, the ratio of in-state to out-of-state students.

California State University, Northridge (CSUN) is one of the larger institutions in the Cal State system. It typically has a total student population of around 38,000 to 39,000 students.

In terms of new students, CSUN typically admits about 5,000 to 6,000 new freshman students every year. However, these numbers can fluctuate yearly based on various factors such as the number of applications received and the capacity of the university.

For the ratio of in-state to out-of-state students, it's important to remember that the Cal State system primarily serves students from California. CSUN, like other Cal State schools, is primarily attended by in-state students. The ratio usually averages at about 90% in-state to 10% out-of-state. I encourage you to reach out to the admissions office if you require more detailed or updated figures.

Do remember, as a state school, California State University, Northridge's mission is to serve students of California primarily. This mission is reflected in the admissions statistics and enrollment rates. The university might give preference to in-state students, which can be seen in the higher number of in-state students enrolled.

I hope you find this information helpful as you explore your college options. If there are other things you want to know about CSUN, feel free to ask!
