i think there is

Since you posted this a year ago I’m assuming you’re talking about nov 2023😂I’m considering going up that way in November hopefully there’s stuff

Hey it’s been a year how’s is it?

Because they are not a Cali resident duh lol 😂

Hello! Of course. CSULB statistics do show that it is mostly a commuter school. I commuted two years, but lived one year on campus. Everyone who lives on campus is typically from out of state, first time freshman’s, international, or other reasons! I do believe it is not a college town. If you are looking for a college town CSULB would not give you that. BUT, I do believe you can achieve a college life from CSULB for sure. People join fraternities, clubs, sports, etc. Of course around the campus off-site, businesses get most of their business from students, but it is not like some college campuses that have everything & anything for them off campus in walking distance. CSULB is located in a busy area of Long Beach, yet there is a lot to do near by if you had a car or took the bus (other beach cities, the mall area, Aquarium, downtown Long Beach, 2nd street, etc). The school provides either a free or discounted bus pass for the students. I am also a firm believer that for some people in order to achieve the college life you have to put yourself out there to get that! I know plenty of people that experienced so much at CSULB through friends, clubs, sororities, etc and you can for-sure achieve amazing experiences. But if you are hoping for a college town (because I have seen colleges like that before; ASU, USC, etc) then I would choose a college that has that for-sure!

Hello! We stayed at an Airbnb that we had found based off our budget and location. We first stayed here in Southern Montana : abnb.me/Sne4heKiqlb and then we stayed at this wonderful cabin in Northern Montana: abnb.me/IgLL8fNiqlb

@@mackenzieclarke2627 thanks! Appreciate it❤️

Hi! I used the iPhone 7s plus!!

We were in YellowStone around November 18th!

We were told by the property owners we could feed the animals in the video because they are on the property being fed everyday.

Yes you can! I believe it is a payment system you set up with the school on your my.csulb account, which can be payed in full or I think in other payments.

Yes you can transfer credits only if they are transferable. It is best to meet with a counselor at the school you are at, so they can tell you the credits that can be transferred. If you come from a community college, it is easier for transferring credits whereas another university is trickier. www.csulb.edu/admissions/transfer-credit-for-incoming-students

For those prices they are listed here : www.csulb.edu/student-records/tuition-and-fees It depends how many units you choose to partake in. It is $396 on top of each credit and the fees listed in that chart.

@@mackenzieclarke2627 thank you so much!

How many units are the normal amount to take per semester if you’re a full time student and intend to finish in 4 years?

@@rikkemslarsen7955 If you intend to finish in 4 years you should be taking 15 units per semester. That’s about 5 classes unless one of the classes is a 4 unit class. A bachelors requires 120 units completed, so that allows 8 semesters of 15. If you take summer and winter classes (they are more expensive), then you will possibly finish early or just not have so much on your hands. 5 classes is very doable because you can spread them out throughout the week.

@@mackenzieclarke2627 okay thank you! I’m just trying to figure out the cheapest possible way to get a BFA in California. Because I’m international it’s gonna be expensive no matter what but I’d rather it be less expensive ya know 😛

Yes! I think like most cities, there are some unsafe areas that you should be cautious walking at night in, but that is a rule of thumb anywhere you go! The school’s area is safe with residential area, a VA hospital, businesses, etc. There are safety buttons all around campus to contact the on campus police if needed. I had a night class when I lived on campus and would ride my bike back home around 8pm and always felt safe!

I’m so sorry I did not see this comment until now. This was mid November! Around the week of the 18th (:

Hi! I’m glad you found my video too! We went from November 14th-21st. It was my first time in the snow as well. Before arriving, I was nervous we wouldn’t be able to drive North because of the snow, but it was actually perfect. The highways were dry and the roads. The only snow we hit was in the cabin and on one hike. It was not snowing a lot so we got very lucky! As to what I packed, I would love to answer your questions. I will come up with a list and get back to you about that and info on the flight! (:

@@mackenzieclarke2627 thank you so much!!♥️

@@honeybumble6631 Hi! So, for the flight.. I payed to bring a checked bag and it was $30 there and back. I did this so I could bring more because the cold weather I needed more room for fluffy coats/jackets/etc. So, I had my personal item (a backpack) and then the checked bag! My friend did not pay for a checked bag, but her bag did not fit in the cabin, so they checked it under the plane for free. I packed thermals(www.amazon.com/dp/B01BN2LJ0I/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_DTNV31669R4YFVAPHKAH?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1), snow overalls for Glacier National Park because Northern Montana had more snow, jeans, snow boots, Doc Martens, sweaters, beanies, and scarves! Pretty much anything that will keep you warm. When we went to Yellowstone we were much colder there than in the snow near Glacier National Park because there was wind, rain, and ice! Let me know if you have any other questions, hope this helps!

@@mackenzieclarke2627 thank you so much!! I’ll hop back on here if I have any other questions. But where did you order your snow overalls?

@@honeybumble6631 Of course! I got them from a discounted snowboarding/ski/sport called Play It Again Sports.

I just finally posted one!

Awe! I am so glad that it helped you. When I first started at CSULB, I was expecting to be there for 4 years. I suggest letting them know and asking what plan and courses will help you achieve finishing early. Taking summer courses and winter courses will help you, although I have never taken any, but will this summer. Make sure you always have 15 units and you can enroll in courses that double count for requirements. I believe this helped me finish early because many of my courses covered multiple requirments. Meeting with your advisors will help you determine how many you can double count and what not! This process was not difficult for me, but I also always packed my schedule with 15 or 15+ units each semester! I also took 4 unit courses that helped me reach the 120 units for a BA. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions (:

Hi... Nice to see you
