High school seniors in various parts of the state will have new pathways to the Cal State system for fall 2025.
Cal State East Bay announced partnerships with the San Leandro and Hayward Unified School Districts to provide guaranteed admission to students who have completed A-G coursework and sustained at least a 2.5 GPA.
High school students in these districts will be notified by the campus if they are guaranteed admission — and will then have to follow through the normal application process and formally enroll.
“This type of personal outreach is about more than eligibility — it’s about belonging, about knowing that there is a place for them in their community,” Sonal Patel, San Leandro Unified School District assistant superintendent of educational services, referring to the personalized nature of the admissions offers.
“We want our students to feel welcomed and valued as they take this next important step in their educational journey.”
