it's likely that you'll get in. about 90%.

Your SATs help a LOT. Your GPA might be problematic for some people (especially since with the economy getting into school can be harder with cuts and more people applying) However, with college applications, your sports, work and volunteer experience will only strengthen your application. You don't mention you have any awards. Did you get the honor roll at any point? Did you get any achievement awards in any sport, volunteer work or otherwise? Don't forget to add those to your application if you haven't applied yet! Don't stress out!! :) Good luck.

San Jose and SF are good for nursing. If you want to go up to the UC level, UCLA is the best.
2
California State University offers best range of bursing program..
3
I go to SJSU and I just finished my freshman year. SJSU has a SUPERB nursing program; however, it's really hard to get into so you're going to have to do really well in the pre-nursing course (at least 3.7) and good scores (TEAS). I'm not too familiar with the SFSU nursing school, but I do know that SJSU's program is superior.

My favorite on this list is CSU Monterey Bay. It's a FANTASTIC area.
2
If it were me, I would choose based on location and lifestyle you desire. I would avoid the following schools, because they are in areas which I would not want to stay for any length of time: Los Angeles, Northridge, San Bernardino, Bakersfield, Fresno, San Jose, Pomona. That leaves Sonoma, Hayward, Chico, and Monterey. I would go Monterey, then Sonoma, then Chico, and then Hayward.
3
San Jose State as a very good business program. The school is located near many successful companies and there are a lot more successful companies near by.
4
Ironically enough....you have them in a decent order. The Cal State system is strong so it comes down to areas and your specialty of preference (business). Too bad CSU Long Beach isn't on that list! Best of luck.
5
Here's what I know about some of the schools: San Jose State is academically one of the best in the system. It is in downtown with a good nightlife, is a diverse college, has somewhat decent sports (better than the others on your list beside Fresno), and although a lot of students commute from home, quite a few live around campus. Sonoma State is a beutiful campus, with apartment style dorms that are the main reason a lot of people go there. I haven't heard anything bad about it. Chico is widely known for being a party school, and not much beyond that. East Bay (formerly known as Hayward State) seems like a commuter school. Fresno and Bakersfield are ok schools, but the towns are very hot and depressing. Monterey is in a beautiful area, but it is a fairly new school and may not have very good academic programs. The Monterey Bay is also a short drive away from San Jose, so there isn't really a good reason to go there. So, I would recommend San Jose for academics and for all-around college experience, Chico for partying, and Sonoma for beautiful surroundings. I never lived in Southern California, so I don't know anything about the other colleges on your list.

Chico is known as a party school but there are ppl that are more academically inclined . Chico has a great business program its a somewhat rural area, it is your typical college town (if thats what you're looking for) and living there is much less expensive than sonoma, hayward, san jose. If you want city life (and great internships) San Jose, East Bay & LA are top choices.
7
None of them are exactly super prestigious universities. So, if you're going to be there for one year, I'd pick one based on its location so you can do stuff outside of school. My 4 favorites would be San Jose State, Cal Poly Pomona, Cal State LA, and Cal State Monterey Bay. San Jose State would let you check out the Bay Area. Nice place, altho I much prefer San Francisco and even the East Bay over San Jose and the rest of the South Bay. San Jose State has the only american football team that's worth watching out of that list. They play some decent schools. Pomona, while a boring area, is still in the greater Los Angeles area. It's also a nicer, and more safe area than where CS LA is located. CS LA is in the heart of LA. Bad area, but if you leave the immediate area, you can experience the best LA has to offer. Monterey is beautiful, but you'll have to love nature and/or golf. Can get boring there otherwise if you're not the outdoorsy type. Pretty isolated too. A good alternative to Cal Poly Pomona or CSLA would be Long Beach State or Cal State Fullerton. Not sure why they're not on your list.

definitely San Jose State U. it has a good business program and it's in the heart of silicon valley where all the jobs are.

Beyond just the where the degree is earned it is always good to get some experience while working on your degree. Many businesses are hesitant to hire someone for the positions they would want with a MBA without some experience. It also depends on your version of a "great" job. Do you want the most possible money? A job with good benefits and flexibility? Do you want relocate or stay close to home? All of these questions would factor in. An MBA degree is fairly popular among employers and students so do something to set yourself apart from the crowd no matter which school you choose.

What are the best civil engineering schools in California?
What are the best civil engineering schools in California?
I am a community college student who has taken all the math and physics and I want to know which schools to apply to. Who are the best CSUs? I know Cal-Poly SLO and San Jose State are pretty good. Who else? Who are the best UCs? I know Berkeley, Davis, and UCLA have good civil engineering programs. Who else? I can't afford private schools, so, I probably won't look at any.

Sorry to be a snob, but the reputation of the school has a lot to do with your future. Really does. So skip the state colleges. Cal Poly is pretty good, but the Universities have the clout. Davis is good. My son just graduated from there in CE. Housing is very good, cost of living is reasonable. Good town. Berkeley is good, but housing is awful. City politics make the place a laughing stock. And, sorry to the other poster but Harvey Mudd is only known to a few that graduated from there. No Nobel Laureates.

The best civil engineering school in Istanbul,Turkey. The name is Istanbul Technical Univercity.

San Jose State University or San Diego State -- which is better for a Business Degree?
San Jose State University or San Diego State -- which is better for a Business Degree?
My daughter has been accepted to various California universities and has narrowed it down to San Jose State and San Diego State for International Business or Marketing (Business). Does anyone have any information about which school would be better for business-related jobs (including global marketing)? She is already bilingual in Spanish, having been a foreign exchange student in South America. Anyone with personal or professional experience with either school? She is going to attend a California State University because the degrees are better-designed toward a career right after college, rather than having to go to graduate school right after college -- she is an excellent student and wants to use her bilingual/bicultural skills and gain business/marketing skills. Feedback is appreciated -- thank you!

San Jose State has a pretty decent international business program from what i have heard. Our school has some study abroad programs that your daughter might be interested in. SJ is more known for its technical majors tho such as engineer, and MIS but there overall business program is pretty good. I dont know much about San Diego State but I know pretty much all UC and State college in CA all have credited business programs so they are all good.
2
I am currently a student a SJSU and I do not know much about San Diego State other than the fact that it has a really good Marine Biology Program. As far as business school goes, SJSU COB(college of business) offers great degrees in accounting, finance and management information system. We are very well networked with the tech companies in silicon valley as well as the financial institutions here in downtown san jose. I am not familiar with our international business program but we do have a very diverse student body. Regardless of which school she plans to attend, it would be very beneficial to join some sort of business orgainization on campus. Here is a list of business student orgs here on our campus: http://www.cob.sjsu.edu/cob/5_STUDENT%20SERVICES/s_organizations.html I hope this helps. best regards, tim
