CSU local areas and guarantees
Most CSU campuses treat all of California as local for transfers. Some give students from certain colleges or areas an advantage, or a guarantee.
| Campus | Applies here | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Sacramento State | Yes | Sacramento State treats transfers as local if most of their units come from its ten listed colleges. Local applicants who meet the minimums are offered admission to the university, though not always to an impacted major. |
| CSULB | Through your high school | Since fall 2025, transfers count as local if they earned most units at Long Beach City, Cerritos, Golden West, Coastline or Orange Coast College as their last school, graduated from a high school in CSULB’s local area, or are veterans. |
| Cal Poly SLO | Through your high school | Cal Poly gives local preference by high school: graduates of high schools in San Luis Obispo County, northern Santa Barbara County and southern Monterey County. It defines no community college area for transfers. |
Campuses with a college-based rule that doesn’t cover Yuba College: SDSU, Cal State Fullerton, SJSU, Cal State LA, Fresno State, SF State, Cal State San Marcos, Sonoma State.
