CONGRATULATIONS! YOU ARE ADMITTED!!!

Cal State East Bay uses self-reported information and a review of partial transcripts with in-progress coursework to determine initial admission eligibility. All initial admission offers are conditional and contingent upon the completion of in-progress coursework and final review of all admission requirements, including evaluation of all official transcripts.  

Most applications meet the conditions of admission but occasionally some may not.

Common reasons are:  

• Failure to meet document deadlines  
• Failure to meet the admission requirements as a Freshman or as a Transfer
• Failure to meet published admissions requirements, such as:  
  • Official final transcripts that do not reflect the courses and grades indicated on your admission application 
  • Failure to complete planned or in-progress courses  listed on your admission application
  • Your cumulative grade point average falling below the required minimum 

Incoming transfers must submit all final, official transcripts from any colleges or universities attended. Transcripts with final grades for all courses must be submitted to clear any admission conditions and maintain your eligibility to enroll. 

Please refer to the transfer student application deadlines for partial and final transcript deadlines.

Request that your institution send electronic transcripts to accelerate processing time.  Previously opened, scanned transcripts or transcripts emailed directly from students are considered unofficial and cannot be used to fulfill admission requirements and be evaluated for transfer credit. Only transcripts sent directly from the institutions or a 3rd party vendor on behalf of the institutions are accepted.

The Office of Admissions does not accept composite transcripts. Courses that appear on one transcript but were taken at another institution are invalid. Student will need to have a transcript sent from that original institution.  

Institutions that can send official transcripts electronically may send them to electronictranscripts@csueastbay.edu.

Official documents in sealed envelopes can be delivered in-person to the Enrollment Information Center in the Student  Services and Administration building on the Hayward campus or at the Academic Services Center on the Concord campus.  They can also be mailed to:

Office of Admissions
Cal State East Bay
25800 Carlos Bee Blvd.
Hayward, CA 94542

Fees are due after registering for classes. Check your MyCSUEB account under the “Finances” section to view your payment due date. You can pay in full or sign up for a payment plan. 

The Degree Audit Report (DAR) is the tool used by students and advisors to map out courses toward graduation.  Once students accept the admission offer, our Degree Audit team starts working on populating the report with your coursework.  

• Around March 15th for incoming fall students and
• around October 15th for incoming spring students.

The Degree Audit team will notify students as soon as the official review is done and the DAR is officially ready to be used. At the very latest, the DAR will be completed no later than 3 months into the first semester and in time for students to plan their courses for their second semester.

Cal State East Bay values your education and does everything to help support you with your journey. If you would like to speak to an advisor to go over your preliminary DAR and what courses you should take, contact your advisor and they will be able to help.
