Why Us?

Five great reasons to attend SDSU

1. Our academic reputation opens doors in every field. Consider: Our pharmacy program boasts a 100-percent job placement rate; our nursing graduates consistently score above the national average on the RN licensure exam; and our engineers typically rank among the nation’s top 10 to 20 percent in Fundamentals Exam scores.
   
   
2. SDSU’s powerful education won’t break the bank. Our tuition is not just competitive, though, it’s also a great value for an outstanding experience that reaps rewards for a lifetime.
   
   
3. After commencement, 95 percent of our new grads get great jobs with such notable employers as Boeing, Dupont Chemical Corporation, IBM, and the EROS Data Center.
   
   
4. Athletes and fans alike appreciate the excitement of SDSU’s Division I competition, but our students also make the most of more than 200 other social activities on campus, including the University Program Council, the International Relations Club, and the Helping Everyone Achieve Optimal Health (HEROH) organization.
   
   
5. We provide more than $5 million in scholarships and $60 million in financial aid every year. Our Jackrabbit Guarantee awards each new freshman who scores above 23 on the ACT (or 1100+ on the SAT) $1,000 in scholarship funds per year for four years.
