Anyone know what envelope I should use to send my official transcript because my high school sent it in an envelope and i opened it. And If I can drop it off instead of mailing.

Hey, I am a transfer student going into my sophomore year and I submitted my housing application very late because I didn’t realize it was fully submitted. Will I still be guarantied some sort of on campus housing??

If I am an out of state student with a 2.5 gpa and 18 on act what do you think my chances of getting in are.

I sign up for orientation for today the 27 but I couldn't go due to emergency, do you all think I can still register on the saturday?

I am moving into East Campus August 1st and was wondering if people ever give away furniture or things they don't want anymore when moving out? I was also wondering what peoples recommendations were for getting furniture and where to get it for cheap as I am moving with a little sedan and arriving with no furniture and a tight budget and a SAI of -1500. Is there any resources on campus that can help with low income students getting furniture or any place other than fb marketplace I can look for students giving away things they don't need. If anyone thrifts is there any farmers markets or flee markets they recommend I check out. ALSO does anyone know how washer dryer hook ups work and how renting a washer and dryer would work, or is it better to just buy a used set?
Edit:
I also do not own a truck or anything to move furniture, i just have a small sedan so I am worried about how I would transport furniture if anyone has suggestions

Hey, kind of an odd question but does anybody know the rough dimensions of the bedrooms in East Campus. I’m living in Oregon rn and would love to get all my furniture tax free before I move down. I don’t want to buy anything too big and there’s no dimensions on the website. Thanks!

So I’m not having any luck with housing in the East Campus Housing and my domestic partner is coming with me.. what are some good apartments in MB for us to check out?

I’m asking this question because I’m considering transferring over here but I want to know how the aid is like with housing included. I did the calculator for the net price but I’m not sure if it’s realistic. For consideration I’m middle class and have around 6 people in my household and three go to college.

This probably sounds pretty stupid, but what's an Asynchronous Virtual Instr class? I looked it up, and it basically says it's all online. But I noticed for one of my business classes it's listed as "Asynchronous Virtual Instr" with a set time and place.

Is this like a hybrid class or just online? Im a little confused.

I’m asking if csumb takes late applications? I couldn’t submit my application on the 15th due to personal issues, however I want to still attend. Will they let me send a late submission and what are the requirements for doing so?

I’m currently a student at a CA community college and will be applying to schools this fall. Anyone who is pursuing (or already did) a BS in Ecology, Evolution, and Organismal Biology I would love to hear about your experience.

ik this is super late to be asking, but i just recently got accepted and was enrolled officially (literally june 13th). i keep refreshing the myHousing page over and over to find the new student app things to start the application process. i’m getting really worried because one i am a freshman and two because i live in socal (like in between LA and San Diego). also i have no idea how to do the meal plan without the housing if there even is a way. i’m the first in my family to be going to a far away college so i don’t have a lot of advice on how to do this. if anyone knows how to do any of this stuff, please please please give me some advice.

Anyone in TRIO, what was your interview like?

I’m moving from OC and would love to continue to play volleyball (sand/indoor), as well as tennis. Are there any club teams, or even public groups for either of these sports?

I already applied to get into csumb. I did pretty well in all my classes but I got a D for physics in my 2nd semester in high school of this year. I did took two years of science of different categories which is a requirement. Do you guys I think I can get in?

Update my gpa is 2.6 and CA resident I major in bio

Hi everyone! I’m currently starting my research about graduate school as I’m hoping to apply this fall. What advice do you guys have? How does it work being a student at CSUMB but taking classes at the Moss Landing marine lab? What is the application process like? Any advice helps!

Okay bruh, what bars are we going to???

Has anyone had any problems with their credits as a transfer student being counted/marked incorrectly? I have taken multiple (like manyyy) of my major's requirements, and I should be an incoming junior. Yet today, I was reviewing my advisement report on OASIS and none of my core classes are counting as core classes. Which has me totally freaking out! I did attend a quarter system school, but that should not affect things as much as it is appearing to. For example, I took General Chemistry in 3 parts so CHEM 111, 112, and 113. At the end I passed my ACS General Chemistry Examination top of my class. That should count as Chemistry 110 and 111 here. (I have also taken the respective labs.) But they are not counting them for my Biology B.S core credits! They are lumping them all together and calling it "physical science." And this goes for many of my classes. Counting it for random electives or such and not the core classes that they are! And for ref, I have taken other physical science classes that would fulfill the requirements they are presently counting my chemistry sequence for, so it's not a matter of filling lower-level "blanks" first. Like, that's a YEAR of chemistry, and I took the board exam and everything! It's the farthest thing from an elective or introductory course, and I am not trying to endure that again. Once was enough for me! Who should I / can I contact to get this sorted?

Seasonal Positions Available

I made a post earlier, but I have one more additional question.

Has anyone been able to land a summer internship while in the online CS program. If so, how does that work since the program is year-round? Also, for alumni, how have job opportunities been since graduating?

Would love to grab insight from everyone, any information helps.

Thanks!

Hi! I have a few questions about the Online CS program. I’m planning on applying for the Fall 2025 or Spring 2026 term. Unfortunately I don’t have any of the Prereqs completed, but I’m planning on using this Summer/Fall to collect the 3 minimum reqs.

My first question is what is the likelyhood I could get accepted with only the minimum 3?

My second question, for the Peralta College System, grades are due Dec. 21st, and the deadline to submit transcripts is Dec. 20th. Am I able to still be admitted even though I might not be able to turn in transcripts by 1-2 days?

I have a little over a year of self taught programming experience, and I did a coding bootcamp for four months before dropping out due to myself wanting to go the degree route instead.

Thank you, and good luck to everyone!

Incoming sophomore who basically lived off cooking my own meals in Tortuga, only to find my dorms will likely not have a kitchen in the North Quad. Any access to a kitchen from Pinnacle or work arounds?

Visiting the area for a bit and was hoping to see a show while I'm around, any recommendations?

I was admitted for Environmental Science, Tech, and policy in March and I start this coming fall semester. I decided I don’t think that is what I want to do and was wondering if I can change my major before the year even starts. Can I talk to someone about it at orientation in June or do I have to start with the major I have now and change it later? Any information would be appreciated! Thanks!

I’m a 2024 Freshman and I’m not moving to Monterey until August, (I live in SoCal) so I was wondering when is the best time to apply for on campus jobs from people who have been there? Thanks

Hi! I’m looking for housing over the summer near csumb for an internship. Is anyone looking for a sublease?

I'm currently looking into colleges and I was wondering if CSUMB has a Marching band program. I can't find much information about the music program in general. I was hoping if people could give me their honest opinion about the music program and whether or not they have a Marching band.

Hii I’m a transfer student looking to transfer and major in social and behavioral sciences (concentration in sociology and minor in social work) , I’m currently getting my sociology and psychology AAs. I’m wondering if there’s any other classes anyone recommends to take at CC, I also wanted to ask what math classes I’d need to take , I’m terrible at math and definitely want to get those done at CC. I’m honestly super clueless and have a lot of anxiety about doing something wrong or taking the wrong classes lol

Hello! I was wondering if anyone could provide some insight on whether or not housing reassignments are a thing. I feel like the app was very clear when it said that our preferences were just that - preferences - and nothing could be guaranteed and by applying to housing and signing the contract we agreed to whatever housing we got. But my main concern beyond anything else was/is having a single-occupancy room. I have really bad nightmares from a traumatic event a few years back and have never been diagnosed but pretty sure I have PTSD. Needless to say, rooming with me would not be fun for any party involved, and I am especially uncomfortable with it for any number of reasons that I won't list here. I never got a notification about my assignment but just realized it yesterday when I logged into my dashboard, and it was double occupancy even though all of my choices were single! I didn't apply late and someone in my current apartment even has a single so it wasn't a timing thing... so, what should I do? Is there any way to cancel my application entirely so I can just rent somewhere else? Do reassignments ever actually happen/are they allowed? Ugh, this sucks! I knew I was risking it with living on campus but am a transfer and am unfamiliar with the area, so I chanced it. Jokes on me ig!
