I am quite annoyed that SDSU just made the decision to ban cars for Freshman starting this Fall/2019. We toured the campus twice over the past 2 years and most recently last month for Explore Days. At each tour, we specifically asked about their Freshman vehicle policy, and we were told on all occasions that Freshman are allowed to bring their cars to college.
Last week, the university announced that they are changing their vehicle policy for Freshman. We just bought our son a car for his birthday and we were excited for him to bring it to college as an out of state Freshman. We live across the country and we felt that by having a car in college would allow my son to learn the area of southern California on the weekends, and let him conveniently travel to the beach, mountains, and explore towns like Ramona, Borrego Springs.
We met with several current Freshman during Explore Days and all of them said it was a game changer once they brought their car to school.
So now, we have to have our kids rely on ride share, etc...
I really hope SDSU reconsiders their position, especially given that they are only notifying us 3 1/2 months before school starts!
