The CSU is grateful to Senator Christopher Cabaldon for his leadership in championing SB 640, and to Governor Gavin Newsom for signing this important legislation into law. 👏

Very proud to have written Senate Bill 640 to get this done, and grateful for unanimous bipartisan support of the Legislature, signature of the Governor & partnership with @calstate.bsky.social.
No application required: Cal State to automatically admit qualified students under new law
High school students hoping to attend California State University will soon be admitted automatically under a new law — as long as their grades are good enough to get in.
