Legal residents of California are not charged tuition. The following reflects applicable systemwide fees and nonresident tuition for the semester system in which CSULB operates.
The California State University System (CSU) makes every effort to keep student costs to a minimum. Fees listed in published schedules or student accounts may need to be increased when public funding is inadequate. Therefore, CSU must reserve the right, even after initial fee payments are made, to increase or modify any listed fees, without notice, until the date when instruction for a particular semester has begun. All CSU listed fees should be regarded as estimates that are subject to change upon approval of The Board of Trustees of the CSU.
Students who wish to drop units AND to simultaneously or subsequently add the same number of units to accomplish this exchange may do so without financial penalty in State University Fees, provided this exchange in units meets all other signature requirements. This activity may not occur later than 14 days from the first day of instruction.
Application Fee (nonrefundable), payable by check or money order at time application is made: $55.00. These fees are subject to change. Check the current Schedule of Classes for fees each semester.
