California State University Long Beach - Five Things I Wish I Knew Before Attending

www.gobeyondthebrochure.com/Fi... - When applying to colleges, it is often hard to get an authentic feel for the school before you have to make that crucial decision to attend. There is only so much one can discern from those generic college tours and even during orientation weekends. However, part of the college experience is that steep learning curve; living away from home for the first time is simultaneously exciting and terrifying.

    I graduated awhile back. I didn't make friends in the dorm, but I hung out at the Student Union so much. I made so many important, real friends that way.

    The music department with Mr. Frank Pooler, many years ago, provided the training I needed for years to come. We were so blessed to have Mr. Frank Allen, Mr. Phillip Ellithorpe, Mr. Wayne Gard, and Mr. Frank Pooler for music classes, choirs, and glorious friends for years to come!

    Transferring from El Camino College to CSULB this Fall 2021!! Super excited! Thank you for the tips! I definitely agree about not listening /too/ much to the advisors. During my time at El Camino College (a community college), I took 4 required classes for my General ED and took at least 1 other class that would distract my mind from the stress. A few of the classes that help to not feel so much workload would be classes like Boot-camp PE, A language class where you wanna learn a new language (I took Japanese), and even classes that revolve around another major you're interested in (I took Theatre 103, which is introduction to acting. I took 2 more acting classes after that. I fell in LOVE with acting even more. It made me discover that, yes, I would like to pursue a second career out of it-- my first major is Criminal Justice). Please, please, PLEASE take at least 1 or 2 classes that will distract you from your homework (if you're not working-- but if you are and you believe you can manage, go for it!). You will thank yourself later and you'll find college just a little bit more fun. Wishing you all the best!

    yes that is true, its so impacted. Please I wish I would have gone to a different csu my advisors have been not very helpful. It's gonna take me 5 years to graduate now. However, they are super helpful with financial aid and we also have a food pantry for those who cant afford food. The dorms are an issue, but many students get apartments with friends they met in long beach. In fact there is one ENTIRE apartment complex just full of us.Still, its so so packed. So if you want to graduate on time, its going to be super hard. Especially if you are S.T.E.M major.

    I am double majoring with Film and Communication. I am graduating on the 5 year track because I worked my butt off with classes. If I only had one major I would have graduated in 4. But the trick is, starting when you are a freshman, is to go to this university and community college at the same time. There are some classes that are intro level at the community college that can transfer (make sure they transfer first!), that I took. At CSULB each semester I did 15 units, plus one class at community during Fall and summer. Maybe I am over the top, but that is how I did it.
