Transfer Students
CSULB welcomes transfer students from
many kinds of institutions of higher education. Transfer students
arrive from California Community Colleges, other California State
Universities, the University of California campuses, private institutions,
out-of-state colleges and universities, and colleges and universities
from all over the world. Future transfer students who are
in the process of or have applied to CSULB are welcome to make reservations
for the Academic Advising Center's Future Student workshops held
approximately twice each month in the Center. The purpose of the
workshops is to assist future and returning students in understanding
how their transferred work will, most efficiently, apply to their
baccalaureate degree and to assist transfer students in their transition
to CSULB. The workshops are free. To
reserve a seat call our special workshop reservation line at (562)
985-7847.
Different
CSULB rules apply to transfer students depending on when and where
the transfer(s) took place. In Fall 2003, a new CSULB policy
that impacts transfer students will be in place. Specifically,
transfer students must be admitted to a major, students applying
to majors that are not impacted will be admitted to the University
if they meet all admission requirements, students applying to impacted
majors must file applications during the initial filing period (October
1 - November 30) and must meet all supplemental admission criteria
for the designated major. Further, students who do not qualify for
admissions to the preferred impacted major may be admitted to an
alternate on the application, otherwise they will not be admitted
to the University. Students who are admitted to non-impacted majors
may, after entering the University, apply for a change to a given
impacted major only once. There is no limit on requests to
change to a major that is not impacted. CSULB strives to make
the transfer process as clear and uncomplicated as possible. Please
check the Transfer section of our FAQ
for more information pertaining to the transfer process.
