Welcome To Cal State Fullerton Day

High School Seniors, Transfer Students Learn About Campus Offerings

What:

More than 1,500 local high school seniors and community college transfer students admitted to Cal State Fullerton for this fall - as well as up to 3,000 prospective students, their families and friends - will visit the university to find out more about the campus and what the university has to offer. "Through the Decades: 50 Years of Titan" is the theme of this year's event, in celebration of the university's 50th anniversary.

When:

Saturday, April 12, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Schedule:

9 a.m. - noon: A resource fair along Titan Walk and in the Quad will feature information about each of the university's eight colleges, student services and programs, campus clubs and organizations.

9 a.m. - 1 p.m.: Workshops will give attendees the opportunity to learn more about financial aid, campus programs, orientation requirements and housing options, plus other useful information.

9 a.m. - 1 p.m.: Tours of the campus, including a look at the new Student Recreation Center, will be conducted every 15 minutes.

Why:

"This is an opportunity for Cal State Fullerton to show the community true Titan pride and highlight what our university has to offer," said Delia Tijerina, assistant director of pre-college programs. A variety of student services will be showcased, "and all the colleges will be represented," she added.

Additional:

Based on a survey from the 2006 Welcome to Cal State Fullerton Day, 80 percent of those surveyed reported that this event, or one like it, helped them in making a decision about which university to attend, Tijerina said.

Parking:

Free parking is available in both the State College and Nutwood parking structures (off State College Boulevard and Nutwood Avenue, respectively).
