| Questions About?
1) Accepting Our Offer: If you intend to join CSULB for the term you have been offered admission, you must accept our offer by signing onto MyCSULB. If you do not accept our offer within 4 weeks of your admission date, the offer will be withdrawn.
2) $150 Enrollment Deposit: If you accepted our offer, you will be required to pay the $150 non-refundable enrollment deposit, which will be credited towards your tuition fee payment at the time of registration.
3) Test Requirement: Some transfer students from overseas are required to take the English Placement Test (EPT) and Entry Level Mathematics Test (ELM). Please refer to the bottom section of your admission letter to verify your test requirement. Send email to CSUOut-of-state@ets.org to register for the required test(s) if you are out of California.
4) Form I-20: The form I-20 is issued for admitted students who have demonstrated enough funds are available for immediate study. If you’re transferring to CSULB from a U.S. institution on an F-1 visa, your I-20 will be issued after your SEVIS record has been released to CSULB. Transfer students from overseas will be issued a form I-20 after verification of funds. Even though most transfer students complete their bachelor program in 2 years, the normal duration of I-20 is set as 36 months (3 years).
5) Attend Mandatory Admission Sessions: F-1 students are required to attend a CIE check-in session. This session includes the following: reviewing your immigration documents, verifying the proper health insurance, and answering inquiries of our office or university functions. All transfer students are required to sign up for a SOAR class registration workshop for academic advising.
