So You Applied to San Diego State: Are You In...or Chillin' on the Beach Too Long?
Alright, Aztecs-to-be, let's talk about the elephant in the room (or maybe it's a giant inflatable Aztec warrior? San Diego State does love its mascots). You applied, you clicked submit, and now you're refreshing your email like a crazed hummingbird on a sugar rush. Been there, done that, worn out the refresh button on my laptop. Fear not, future scholar! Here's the down-low on how to peek behind the curtain and see if you've officially joined the Aztec family.
My.SDSU: Your Application's Magic Window
San Diego State uses a nifty little portal called my.SDSU. Think of it like your own personal Hogwarts acceptance letter (minus the owl, sorry). This is where you'll find all your application goodies, including that all-important status update. Here's the scoop on how to find it:
- Head over to my.SDSU (insert suspenseful music here).
- Log in with your SDSUid and password. (If you haven't activated your SDSUid yet, there's a special place in my.SDSU to do just that.)
- Look for the shimmering beacon of hope: the Admissions tile. Click on that bad boy.
- There you have it! Your application status should be displayed in all its glory. Be patient, young grasshopper. It might take a few days for everything to show up after you submit your application.
The Waiting Game: How Not to Lose Your Mind
Tip: Take your time with each sentence.
Let's be honest, waiting for college decisions can be brutal. To avoid turning into a jittery mess, here are some ideas to keep you occupied:
- Channel your inner surfer and hit the beach. After all, you'll (hopefully) be living there soon!
- Brush up on your Aztec trivia. Time to impress your future classmates with your knowledge of the best places to score a California burrito.
- Distract yourself with the majesty of sloths. Seriously, watching those slow-moving creatures is guaranteed to take your mind off things.
