None of them are exactly super prestigious universities. So, if you're going to be there for one year, I'd pick one based on its location so you can do stuff outside of school. My 4 favorites would be San Jose State, Cal Poly Pomona, Cal State LA, and Cal State Monterey Bay. San Jose State would let you check out the Bay Area. Nice place, altho I much prefer San Francisco and even the East Bay over San Jose and the rest of the South Bay. San Jose State has the only american football team that's worth watching out of that list. They play some decent schools. Pomona, while a boring area, is still in the greater Los Angeles area. It's also a nicer, and more safe area than where CS LA is located. CS LA is in the heart of LA. Bad area, but if you leave the immediate area, you can experience the best LA has to offer. Monterey is beautiful, but you'll have to love nature and/or golf. Can get boring there otherwise if you're not the outdoorsy type. Pretty isolated too. A good alternative to Cal Poly Pomona or CSLA would be Long Beach State or Cal State Fullerton. Not sure why they're not on your list.
