EES Admissions

Admission to the Engineering Extended Studies Department is a multi-step process. We take
into account a student’s professional experience, not just academic background. As part of a
cohort, students work closely with one another throughout the program and we look for
students who will find success here at SJSU.

Please read the following steps and refer to the FAQs before sending questions to the Extended Studies Department.

Step 1: Pre-qualification Evaluation

Complete a pre-qualification form through the links below. An advisor will review your background and determine your eligibility for admission. This step will also add you to our contacts list so that we can keep you informed about upcoming information sessions and deadlines.

Step 3: Apply to San Jose State University

After pre-qualification approval, we’ll advise you on how to proceed with your SJSU application. Please DO NOT submit your SJSU application until we have confirmed that your program has been listed on Cal State Apply. Read and follow the provided application instructions carefully to ensure that you apply to your intended program.

Please note that applying for admission to an off-campus cohort at San Jose State University is not a guarantee that the program will occur; cohorts must meet minimum enrollment standards. Please be aware that in the event a cohort does not launch due to low enrollment, any and all associated application fees cannot be refunded.

Step 4: Check your Admission Status

After applying to SJSU, login to MySJSU to check the status of your application and check your "to-do" list for any missing documents. Submit all documents to SJSU GAPE at sa-adm-wrkflow@sjsu.edu; include your SJSU ID and name in the body of the email.
