"Higher education is the system fuel for California's economic growth. We're rapidly running out of that fuel," Lt. Gov. John Garamendi

Implications: Fewer Transferring Graduates
CSU policy: SJSU will not be accepting any applications for admission for Spring 2010.
Applies to all categories – freshmen, transfer, credential, and graduate.
Transfer students do not have clear paths or timetable to graduation
