First-time freshmen who applied and were provisionally admitted to attend a California State University campus for fall 2015 will be allowed to start classes despite the cancellation in July of the California High School Exit Exam. Some California high school students did not receive a graduation date on their final high school transcripts because of the cancellation of the exam. Passage of the CAHSEE is not a requirement for CSU admission eligibility; however, a high school graduation date, noted on official transcripts, is required to verify successful completion of the required coursework for admission.
“We have asked the admissions offices at all 23 CSU campuses to be flexible in the final evaluation of new freshmen who might not have received their graduation date on final transcripts,” said Loren Blanchard, CSU executive vice chancellor for Academic and Student Affairs. “California high school graduates who aspire to enroll at a CSU campus and meet all other requirements for admission to the CSU will not be turned away because of the decision to cancel the exam.”
CSU campus outreach staff are working with high schools, the impacted students and their families to ensure they begin the academic year on schedule. If a student was unable to take the CAHSEE in July and if that was the only reason for the omission of a graduation date on the transcript, CSU campuses will continue to maintain the conditional offer of admission, and will continue to work with his/her high school until the record-keeping issue is resolved.
