For an undergraduate out-of-state student the tuition costs about $34,000 which for out of school tuition is really cheap compared to other schools. University of California San Diego is just slightly higher, $37,000.
However according to the SDSU website (x) non-residents can apply for residency so they can receive in state tuition only if they can prove to the state that they aren't just going to school in California and then leaving. If the person can prove that they're planning on staying in California then they will be able to apply for in state tuition, which in my opinion, why leave California? It is such a great place filled with nothing but great vibes.
Some perks of San Diego State University, other than the fact it's cheaper, it only requires the ACT not the ACT Plus (with writing), the college overall is more artsy- more into music and theatre but still offers a variety of majors and minors not in the art category. Also SDSU is near Scripps park which could be a great place to hang out with friends or study outside.
One thing that isn't so great about San Diego State University, compared to University of California San Diego, it isn't walking distance to a beach. In my case, coming from out of state I know I won't know anyone in the school so I've decided that I'm definitely living on campus and having a car won't be necessary. It will just be a pain in the ass to have to always pay for parking I'll most likely only use it to go grocery shopping which since my aunt lives in San Diego she can take me or I can just walk places. EXERCISE IS GOOD! This summer I want to learn how to skateboard and longboard so that could also be another option for me.
SDSU Admissions. "Day in the Life of SDSU Aztecs"
This six-minute video shows a little bit of what the daily life for a San Diego State University student is like. In the video you can see a bit of inside the dorms, as well as the campus and the classrooms. I like how this video includes three different people's perspective and a little background info like how the girl with long brown hair, Nikki, is from Phoenix, AZ and she is extremely involved in school activities as well as being in a sorority. She also said that she lives off campus and has to drive a little bit everyday to get to class but there was another girl in the video, Ikaika, who lives on campus and she said she can wake up and be on time just 15 minutes before class starts. Then the only guy in the video, Joquel from Hawaii, enjoys SDSU because the climate is similar to Hawaii's and he "likes the engineering program" and it shows him in his class and labs which I don't know if he's a good actor but Joquel looks like he truly is enjoying SDSU and the program that it offers.
