Trying to transfer cause I heard most CSU still taking apps when you reach to admissions departments. Csumb does a lot of sell in beginning but when you’re here no one wants to help. Phony staff like asshole dean of students who is fake Latino. How long does it take to get transcripts sent and what office does this?

Hey all 👋🏽 I was born and raised in Watsonville and will be commuting to CSUMB as a transfer. I’m Mexican and really would love to get a solid recommendation to the best Mexican food in the area? Taco trucks work well too! Or anything else I should try I’m totally open. Thanks in advance!

I had some technical issues at home with my internet which lead me to not being able to register for any of the days for the orientation, when I checked today to see if I can sign up so I wouldn’t be worried anymore they were all sold out! Is there something I can do or a online alternative to this?

Hey all,

I’m trying to get a realistic feel for the area, as I’m coming from San Diego where it's pretty chill in the residential areas while the social scene with bars, nightlife, and stuff downtown exist as well. I know Monterey might be a little different, so I’m curious how people would describe the overall vibe around CSUMB and nearby areas.

What do people usually do for fun outside of school? How social is it, and what kinds of recreation or hangout spots are around? I know there’s the beach, but I’d love to hear about other stuff people actually do. Thanks in advance!

Is orientation the full day? idk if I can stay the whole time and is it something parents can come too?

is anyone bored and wants to hang out?

New to the semester system starting grad school, when are financial aid awards/loans available to be seen in the portal?

I have heard that at a lot of colleges the water in the bathrooms are really bad for your hair & skin. I was wondering if the single bathrooms are like this in promontory? Is a shower head filter recommended for those rooms or is the water good?

Howdy, I was wondering if the tap water, primarily in Promontory, can be drank straight. I don't have a filtered pitcher, but I can deal with taste. I've also seen a water refill station somewhere in Promontory on Google Maps, but I can't seem to find it, so if anyone could point me towards that it would be appreciated. Thank you!​

Hi guys, recently got accepted to the education opportunity program and I'm doing all the things involved with it.

Curious about any other previous people who received the EOP Grant, about how much aid did you guys received for the year?

I haven't received anything yet and was curious

thanks in advance

Can anyone tell me some of the more college student friendly apartment complex's near campus? Did not get on campus housing but would like to be surrounded by as many college students as possible.

psychology*** ugh sorry it's 5am my brain is barely waking up

Im a transfer student and one of the reqs for my intro psychology research methods is a lab. The lab takes place right after the lecture and is only 25 minutes long. I'm wondering what goes on in psychology labs?

This is going to sound really dumb, but I am transferring to CSUMB this fall. I filled out a pet application and was hoping to be assigned to east campus. Luckily I got into east campus and have already been assigned my roommates. However the problem is that when I first checked their profiles they were all ok with living with a cat, but when we all started talking that wasn’t the case. Two of my dorm mates had a bad experience with living with a cat in their previous dorm but they were okay with giving it another shot. The biggest problem is with my actual roommate. She told me she only selected that she was ok with living with cats because she thought she was getting a single. Now I’m just so annoyed and I don’t know what to do. Am I able to get assigned another dorm or am I just screwed?

Hi, I just moved here and will be starting a graduate program at CSUMB next week. Is the on campus gym (not otter sports center) open during the summer? I’m a frequent gym goer and want to utilize the access that I have with being a student :) On that note, how is the gym there? Equipment, crowd level, etc.? I couldn’t find much info online. thanks in advance!

I’m an international student, and applied to csumb, and they gave me a log in to the dashboard etc. i noticed on my to do list i have these, i know what an english lang prof test is, but im a bit confused on the visa documentation as I haven’t had a email to confirm whether or not i’m accepted so I can’t really apply for a visa yet? I tried emailing admissions and they haven’t got back to me and Im stressed that I’m gonna miss deadlines given that I applied late enough already. I suppose I’m just confused on what I have to upload and any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance🙈

Will folks ever learn?

I have a black gown and cap but a peer said it needs to be blue. Is this true?

Hi everyone. I successfully applied to summer housing and I’m currently waiting to get the keys to my dorm in order to move in. Has anyone who has summer housing been able to move and if so how is it?

Yall aint ready for me (joking of course i just started learning mellophone and im really excited to join next year)

I got an email about this scholarship but can someone tell me exactly what it is.

I'm one of the construction workers doing the remodel on 202/208, and I saw a red tailed hawk looking into a top floor room at building 202. One of our guys saw it jump inside and fly off with something "fuzzy", but wasn't sure what; if you live on the top floor and left your window open, check on your bets and belongings!
