- Low Fees (25k USD)
- Good TA opportunities (One gets to teach a whole class of bachelors students for the whole semester)
- Good On-Campus Jobs (Dining, IT, Data center, Shops, Parking, etc)
Dislikes
- Careers fairs not so good
- Bad university reputation as compared to others
- No good environment for studies (everyone focusing on on-campus jobs too much)
Campus Life
- I opted in for Off-campus accommodation and I stay just opposite the university which is very convenient for students as they just have to cross the road to reach the university and don't have to follow any transportation.
- The monthly rent is 2150 for a 1b1b apartment which is usually shared by 4 people.
- The main challenge in the accommodation process was the communication between the apartment and us since we had to again and again call them for doubts and other communications.

- I did my research before applying to this university. Cal states offer a wide range of course curriculum especially for MS CS and MS BA. CSUF is on top for MS BA according to US News and CSULB comes next. Both of them were in my top preferences.
- California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) is a top choice for those seeking higher education in Southern California. My time at CSUF was enriching and diverse. I studied subjects like database management and cybersecurity, guided by expert and approachable faculty. The university's diverse student body encouraged collaboration, which improved my teamwork and communication skills.
- CSUF's Information Systems program emphasizes research, and I had the privilege of working on various research projects, deepening my understanding of the subject.
Dislikes
- Fewer or no scholarships are provided. Since the cost of living in Southern California is on the expensive side, it gets a little hard to manage your monthly budget if you're not working on campus. CSUF provides a wide range of employment opportunities for students, and there is a requirement almost all the time in the dining and parking areas on campus.
Campus Life
CSUF has a diverse and engaged student body, and campus life is known for its inclusivity and active community. There are numerous student organizations and clubs that cater to a variety of interests, including academic, cultural, social, and recreational. The university hosts a variety of events and activities throughout the year, including cultural celebrations, lectures, workshops, concerts, and social gatherings. There are often events related to student organizations and clubs, as well as larger university-wide events that bring the campus community together.
Accommodation
I live right in front of the campus. It's more like a student community. I live in a one-bed, one-bath house. I share the house with three other people and my room with one person. I pay $600 including the rent, utilities, and bills.

Accommodation
Off campus because rent on campus is stupid high it’s like 2000 a month. I don’t really face any big challenges other than the struggle of finding roommates whenever I move. Meal plans are expensive too so I just get groceries. Meal plans are 200+ dollars
The communications program is one of the best in CA and it was close to home and very cheap. Compared to other colleges it was the best choice for me. I applied to basically all of the UCS and also CSUF and Csulb. I like being near where I grew up, and since my parents were moving to a different city I knew I would have my space.
Accommodation
I lived with my parents the whole time which I recommend for this school because it's a commuter school so living on campus would be boring but I guess downtown Fullerton is an attraction for the freshmen.
I wanted to go to a UC but I was not accepted unfortunately so I opted for a California state university, even then it was not my first choice but I settled because they accepted me early. I don't know why I did that.
I was enthusiastic about the exercise science program they offered and how accredited the professors in the program were. Many of them have worked professionally with athletes who have become pro or made it to the Olympics.
Accommodation
I live on campus and I am not planning on returning next year. I have had a bad experience with the dorms. I think they are overpriced and are not a very positive environment. the dining hall is also subpar.
Location and cost were what I was looking for, they also had the program I wanted and I got into the school. I also liked the campus environment and clubs that were offered and the general vibe of the campus was nice.
I chose this school because it was close to home, it was very reasonably priced tuition and it is a great school for those that aspire to be teachers. It also has a beautiful campus and the class sizes are small.
Accommodation
I managed my residence off campus. I rented an apartment with 4 other roommates which helped bring down the monthly rental, which is very expensive here in California. Housing is cool too but it is more expensive.
Because of the choices of course offered in this university. Also, the weather in California is similar to my native country. Also, there is also a lot of opportunity for on-campus involvement like Associated Students Incorporated. i.e ASI or other student organizations such as IEEE or fraternity clubs. The College also offers a decent fee structure.
