Admission Appeals

Undergraduate Students

All applications for admission are reviewed in accordance with CSU admission policy. Denials of admission are made after an extensive review of academic qualifications.

An appeal process is available to students who believe they meet admission requirements or have extenuating circumstances. Appeals must be submitted in writing within 15 days of the date on the 'missed deadline' or 'denied' notification.

Please include your Fresno State ID number in any emails to our office.  Complete appeal packets will be reviewed and a decision may take a minimum of 4-6 weeks.  Incomplete packets will not be considered. Only one appeal may be submitted for an academic term.

If you have not yet applied to Fresno State and missed the application filing deadline, or would like to appeal your admission decision, please submit the Undergraduate Admission Appeal.

Questions can be submitted via email to admissions@csufresno.edu

Graduate Students

Graduate students who want to appeal must visit the Division of Research and Graduate Studies page.
