Applications for admission as a freshman for the fall 2009 semester at California State University, Fresno are no longer being accepted.
Due to the state’s fiscal crisis, Fresno State has limited space for new students for the fall semester, and the application filing period closed Jan. 9.
The university is still accepting fall 2009 applications from upper division transfers, returning students, graduate students and postbaccalaureate applicants. The application deadline for these students is April 1, 2009.
Questions regarding application deadlines may be directed to the Admissions and Records Office at 559.278.2261.

For once I agree with the CSU. I pay $2804 per semester as a graduate student. However, CSUF puts roughly $350 + the cost of any books into CSUF funds. The remainder of the $2804 goes to the state of California. Since I know where the money is going, it would be nice for the state of California to decrease their portion of my total tuition, and throw part of this toward CSUF itself. I have a problem paying a state institution (the California gov’t) money for higher education when I received an IOU from this damn state after filing state taxes. California can’t pay its bills, so obviously college students take a hit, as well as university employees. Better yet, its too bad you can’t pay the state of California with an IOU. They paid me with an IOU, and God help me if I receive a reimbursement check from this damn state.

Not good. the CSU is obligated to provide access for those qualified to attend—-top 30-40% of the state’s high school graduates last time I checked. Taxpayers pay heavily for this subsidized system of education. They and their children should be provided access to a quality education. Deny admission to the children of undocumented immigrants before you cut off the right of qualified students to CSU admission and education. Why are my taxes sky high in order to pay for the UC and CSU if they can’t bring in those rightfully suited for higher education.
