Student Newsletters

CSULB offers a variety of student newsletters to keep you informed about important deadlines, events, resources, and opportunities. Two newsletters are distributed to all students, the Beach Biweekly (every other Monday) and ASI Beach Front (once a month). In addition to all student newsletters, many CSULB departments and programs publish their own newsletters. These newsletters are subscription-based or audience-specific based on their specific student community.

Learn more about submitting items for all student newsletters, and how faculty and staff can subscribe to student newsletters. We also encourage all CSULB students to subscribe to the newsletters that are relevant to you.
