The admission process for the CSULB Design department is similar to those applying to other departments at CSULB. There is no portfolio requirement for admissions into the University.

All transfer applicants are required to apply by the deadline, meet general University admission requirements, and apply to a specific major. All Design majors are considered impacted. For specific information please visit: http://www.csulb.edu/depts/enrollment/admissions/impacted_major.html
