CSU Impaction:
What is impaction?
When the number of applications received by a CSU campus from qualified applicants is greater than the number of available spaces, a campus is considered “impacted” for undergraduate degree programs or for undergraduate students who apply from outside the local admission area.
In this case, an impacted campus is allowed to use additional criteria to screen applications.
