The Department of Homeland Security’s decision to rescind a policy putting international students at risk offers a measure of relief for thousands pursuing thei...r higher education goals. The Chancellor’s Office continues to review federal guidance to gain more clarity on potential impacts.

Congratulations to our student, Alex Cobarrubius for accomplishing the feat of graduating from California State University, Fullerton in 2020. She was with our department for the past 3 years and proved that Titans do reach Higher. We wish her only the best.

CSU Chancellor Timothy White and senior leadership call for unity and understanding following days of civil unrest across the nation: "Today we write to you wit...h heavy hearts. Never in our lifetimes has there been a sense of helplessness so profound, felt by so many. Feelings of helplessness, unabated, turn to frustration, and frustration to outrage. As our society and our nation are pulled apart by the powerful, centrifugal forces of hatred, intolerance, bigotry, ignorance, selfishness and greed, the California State University will continue to be a beacon for the world through these heart-wrenchingly difficult times, transforming the feelings of helplessness for many into hopefulness for all."
