Acridge, acridge@csus.edu, California State University, Sacramento. The Effect of Campus Impaction on New Student Distribution, Spring 2008 to Spring 2013. The California State University faced budget cuts after the 2008 financial crisis. The budget cuts resulted in a need for CSU Sacramento to reduce student enrollment, a reversal of the historical trend to increase matriculations. This budget-driven decrease in enrollment was achieved, in part, by becoming an impacted campus. Impaction allows a campus to set differential standards for admission based on the applicant's location. This study was conducted to discover what effect impaction had on the geographic distribution of new matriculations to CSU Sacramento. The primary research conducted was the spatial analysis of new matriculations over a five-year period beginning in 2008. My results indicate the geographic distribution was not effected by impaction; CSU Sacramento still draws its applicant pool from the same geographic regions as before. However, the relative proportion of students from different geographic regions has changed; specifically, more applicants are matriculating to the campus from outside the impaction service area since
