SAN DIEGO — Going to college is now more likely for seniors in San Diego Unified’s upcoming graduating class.
“It would big weight off of my shoulders. I would definitely apply there first and, yeah, because that’d be like a safety school,” Sarah Cortez Gallardo, a San Diego State Student, said. Some include meeting the Cal State University admission requirements, maintaining a cumulative 3.0 GPA and being in the district since 9th grade.
The district says starting in seventh grade, families and staff will be made aware of the partnership and how to keep students on the path to getting automatic admission.
