Business - Management and Administration
I didn't find it very hard to get in since I had a 3.0 GPA and the school isn't very impacted.

I thought because it was easy to get into that the classes would be easy to pass. Not true classes are challenging and when you graduate you'll walk away with a degree that employers will respect and honor.
Business - Management and Administration
I went to Chico State for 2 years, living in the dorms the first year and moving to an off campus house 13 blocks from campus for the second year (a HUGE mistake). I ended up only taking a few classes for my major because I was focusing on my general education requirements. This is the biggest joke in the world as the teachers are almost always idiots who teach low level classes that make you feel as if you are still in high school. I was very disappointed with this place by the end of my time there when I decided to leave. Most of the people there are absolute idiots who love to drink all the time and love to start fights at the various house parties around. I even tried rushing a fraternity but since the whole fraterntiy system there is close to being shut down because a kid was killed while rushing a local fraterntiy they hardly had any social events and the members' main focus seemed to be hazing us. After everyone's first year they must move off campus as there are only enough dorms for freshman. This makes for a difficult situation as just about everyone there seems to have roommate problems. Some of the neighborhoods, especially where I lived, do not only have college students living there but also a nice mixture of methamphetamine and other drug abusers with a large number of homeless people roaming the streets. A week after I moved into my house I heard about a person who was shot in the head a few blocks from my house after he stepped outside (he was growing 100 marijuana plants in his attic). I regularly heard gunshots at night, at least a few times a week. Walking home late at night from a party can be quite an experience with a lot of low life people hanging around looking to start trouble. The town of Chico is an absolutely horrible place, the only thing that makes it somewhat bearable is that there a lot of college students and some of them are like what you would think normal college students are like.

The freshman acceptance rate is around 91%. If you did not get in then go to JC and re-apply. They accept 99% of all transfer students.
Even better, take on the loans and go to a better school.
Civil Engineering
I went ot freshman admision day, held in the fall. I showed up with my trascripts and sat scores and was admitted that day.

Fulfilled my GE at a junior college, but go somewhere else for Computer Science
Design Arts - Industrial Design/Graphic Design/etc
get at least a b+ average in highschool and descent SAT's.
Journalism
Try your best and apply. It is getting harder to get into Chico every year so get good grades and take what classes you are suppose to.
Math
My biggest hurdle to getting in was that MIT used a very different system of general ed requirements and units, and most of the other universities to which I applied didn't understand it---and ended up doing very strange things as a result. San Jose State, for example, claimed they couldn't admit me because I didn't have some required lower division courses. It was very, very strange.
My impression is that CSUC is fairly easy to get into, even as a first-year student. It's probably better to take at least some courses at a junior college first, if you can, just because it's cheaper---although my impression is, again, that CSUC's courses are higher quality. YMMV.
Nursing
Requirements to this nursing program is very similar to other 4-year nursing programs. I choose to go to Chico State because that was the only one that accepted me after waiting so long for other colleges to take me in. If Chico State isn't your only choice, I would highly recommend you to go somewhere else. Chico State should be your last resort! I found myself unsatisfied with the program (it wasn't only just me, but many other students). Other students in the further semesters in the program had warned us that it doesn't get any better as we go on.
