80% admit rate $14K–$27K/yr in-state — aid decides

A parent's read

  • The payoff holds even at full price: roughly 7× over a decade. With no aid at all — the full in-state ~$26,593/yr — a decade of median earnings (~$78,988/yr) still runs about 7× the four-year cost. This payoff doesn't depend on qualifying for anything. (Out-of-state costs more.)
  • The campus itself adds earnings power. Opportunity Insights tracks it: only about 12% of students arrive from the bottom income fifth, but those who do reach the top fifth by their 30s at a 47% rate — a strong sign the outcomes here are the campus, not just the intake.

Parent/student verdict

Accessible

Accessible for most applicants. Affordable — net price averages ~$13,760/yr among aid recipients. Major value play for in-state residents.

Best for

  • In-state residents (tuition ~$8,410 — major value play)
  • Students focused on Business, Management, & Marketing (the school's signature program)
  • Students who thrive in a large, programmatic environment

The reality

  • You'd be near the bottom of their admitted class if: unweighted GPA below 3.33 (test bands are the school's own; the 3.33 line is our estimate, not a published figure)

Verdict is composed from this college's structured data (admit rate, SAT bands, net price with aid and at full price, Carnegie classification, scholarship grids) using transparent rule thresholds — not a chat-bot's opinion.

What are your child's odds here?

Enter their numbers once — this and every college page shows their verdict, and the UC campus cards on California school pages light up with it too. Free, no email.

Weighted is the higher GPA, with honors/AP credit in it — pick whichever your school reports. PSAT scores work in the SAT box.

unweighted GPA, enrolled first-year students (Fall 2023 (CDS 2023-2024)). San José State is an impacted (selective) campus — admission is competitive and can vary sharply by major. Cal State is test-blind (no SAT/ACT in admissions), so the a–g GPA is the key academic signal. Source ↗

Admit rate by major — Fall 2025

The headline admit rate hides a wide spread by program.

First-time freshman applications and admits by major, from the CSU Chancellor's Office. Campus overall: 80%. Every program at this campus is impactedA CSU term: the program gets more qualified applicants than it has seats, so the campus adds admission requirements beyond the CSU minimum — a higher GPA bar, specific courses, or priority for local students. Treat impacted majors as more competitive than the campus's overall admit rate suggests. — the campus adds admission requirements beyond the CSU minimum to every major.

Majors reported by transfer path only — Fall 2025

CSU reported no first-year admit row for these majors. At most campuses that means a freshman is not admitted straight into the program: they enter a pre-major (pre-nursing, for example) and apply into it later, while transfer applicants apply to the program directly. The transfer numbers below are the only published gate, and at a program like nursing they are the number a family should plan around.

Student body & economic mobility

Who attends here — and what the campus adds.

Opportunity Insights data. It measures two things at once: how many lower-income students a college enrols, and how many of them reach the top earnings quintile later. A high rate says the college does both — it does not establish that the campus caused the earnings, because the students it admits differ from the students it doesn't. Read it as a signal about access and destination, not as proof of value added.

Feeder high schools

Which high schools send graduates to San Jose State University?

Enrolled — from the schools' matriculation lists

10 high schools publish a numbered matriculation list — where their graduates actually enrolled, counted, in the school's own School Profile — and name San Jose State University on it. Between them they printed 38 enrolled graduates. Ranked by graduates per class year enrolling at San Jose State University, from each school's own published list: the number that school printed, divided by the class years its list covers. The published total and the school's own years label are shown beside every school, so a one-year list and a five-year list can sit on the same page. A list whose class years we cannot read is not divided by a guess — it is listed below with its total instead.

High school · years its list covers Enrolled per class year
Valley Christian High School · Class of 2024 & 2025 8.0 · 16 over 2 class years
Saint Joseph-Notre Dame High School · Class of 2026 6.0 · 6 over 1 class year

Admitted — from the schools' acceptance lists

3 high schools publish a numbered list of college acceptances — where their graduates were admitted, not where they enrolled — and name San Jose State University on it. Between them they printed 139 admissions. Ranked by admissions per class year to San Jose State University, from each school's own published acceptances list: the number that school printed, divided by the class years its list covers. Admits are counted at each college a student was admitted to, the same way the UC Reach Score counts a student admitted to three UC campuses three times — so this is a count of admissions, not of students. The published total and the school's own years label are shown beside every school, and a list whose class years we cannot read is listed below with its total rather than divided by a guess.

High school · years its list covers Admitted per class year
Archbishop Mitty High School · Class of 2025 132.0 · 132 over 1 class year
Lycée Français de San Francisco · Classes 2022, 2023, 2024 2.0 · 6 over 3 class years
Canterbury School-Fort Myers · Class of 2026 1.0 · 1 over 1 class year

All 13 feeder schools, ranked →

Counted from each school's own published document, linked on that school's page. A high school that is not here does not publish a numbered list we could read — that is all absence means, and it says nothing about its graduates. Where a school publishes both, the two lists are shown separately: an acceptances list is not a list of enrollments, and the two are never added together.
