Watch Out for the "Blonde Brigade"
This school has many international students and thus provides some diversity. However, the majority of students are white, and a huge percentage of the females of SDSU are blonde. There are a few minorities here and there, such as African Americans, Latinos and Pacific Islanders.
I've met quite a few international students. Some fit in and are accepted very quickly, and others seem to remain ignored. The biggest obstacle for these international students is to make friendships with others besides similar international students from their own country.

Drinking Is More Popular
There isn't too much hardcore drug use. People may smoke weed, but other than that not much else is common. There is however a lot of drinking and partying. Alcohol is very visible, you can walk by apartments on your way home on a Friday night and see solo cups and people clearly out drinking or stumbling back home.

Party Hard, but Study Harder!
I love SDSU, the people are great, the college life is amazing and the weather is the best! I would do it all over again if I could. However, I regret not signing up for a traditional dorm room. I signed up for University Towers, which has its own bathroom for convenience. However, you meet less people this way. Traditional dorms may be hectic and loud, but that is the BEST way to meet people and make new friends which is especially important as a freshman.
