who from soompi goes there? i wanted to hear the pros and cons...ive made up my mind to major in industrial design...anyone else majoring/planning to major in that field?

[sunshine4ever]

^I go there and I'm graduating this semester, but I'm not in the same major as you are.

Anyway, the pros and cons won't be good for you if we are not in the same major. I think CSULB has one of the greatest programs for the Liberal Studies major. But if you want to learn more about industrial design, check out the website: http://www.csulb.edu/depts/design/

Are you going to commute or stay in the dorms?

[Bambee08]

i go to csulb. i'm in the nursing program so i don't really go to classes on campus. but the school is okay imo...they have neat events and things, but i'm sure it's the same for other schools. i don't know how it is for your major.

one of the things i really hate about the school is the parking! so much staff lots in the most convenient places..but general parking is so far from everything.

[bombshell]

sunshine4ever: i actually checked out their site already, and any other sites that included information on the school and its people. thank u though. im going to commute btw

Bambee08: are u serious.....i hate walking lol. how are the people there? i heard csulb is one of the better calstates

[Bambee08]

yea but it's okay..there's a shuttle that makes its rounds. hmm the people....well the people i've met so far are pretty nice. then again, it's going to be like that anywhere you go.

[MissMonika]

I go there also. I'm currently undeclared but am leaning towards Linguistics. I was going to do nursing but realized it wasn't my thing. Yes, parking is awful, especially after 10:00 AM. *bleh* X_X

[bombshell]

mann..... i guess not many people know much about/attend csulb. thank u to those who have given me a response. its helped change my mind. but just in case, i think im going to visit the campus sometime during the summer to get a feel of what the campus is likee

[sunshine4ever]

^I thought you were talking about your major? lol. Anyway, the school's good. You need to be specific about what it was that you wanted us to tell you then we can help you. I like the school, and you know what? Our school ranked 3rd or something in the state colleges?

You can read more on our school's lifestyle here?

I dunno how to reply to you unless you're specific about what it is you wanted to know. But the school has a large population of people, so when you go there, expect it to be big, and a lot of people going back and forth from different streets. It is actually smaller than UCI despite the fact that we have more students. I guess we just have enough parkings, but there has been some expansion for parkings though. I just didn't use the new parkings so I wouldn't know how nice they are, but we have an expansion for parkings, so don't worry about the parking part.

[bombshell]

oh. i just wanted to know who in soompi is currently in csulb's industrial program. and i also wanted to hear about the pros and cons of the school, if u do go to that school.

ive done further research....and i think im just gonna stick to csulb.

[HIP2thaHOP]

well im still a junior in hs, and i went to their kaleidoscope thing they had on saturday, since my cousin from WA is planning on going to LB. the campus is nice, but yea the parking is small and far from the things. The pyramid thing is really cool , the computer place there is nice too, the comfortable sofas haha, and the people are really nice there. That is a calstate i would apply to

My orientation's on the 9th!!!
Ahhhhhhh how was it?

[0HMi_M0CHi]

I also wanted to major in Industrial Design at CSULB. I don't currently attend there but I've done a lot of research on it and visited the campus. But I've concluded to it that I can't stick with that major. Simply because the community college I attend right now doesn't even offer half of the pre-requisite courses that I need before going in as a Junior. But now I'm leaning towards Graphic Design. Just hope that you don't as well plan on transferring because I don't think many community colleges offer the pre-requisites that are needed for that major.

I am afraid to go to Cal State Long Beach. Since its so big, and I don't like big confronation. I was thinking of going to LBCC for two years and transfer. Counselor with my grades, I shouldn't have a problem. I was thinking of joining the nursing program. Two more year baby. I be there soon enough.

I am going to be a Junior when school starts. Besides my grandma is forcing me to go there, since its close to the house. >.>
So if I don't get in, its WHAMP!

can anybody tell me what is part of the application process? does it require an essay to apply as a freshman undergraduate?

[Lebanese_Blonde]

^

Though I transferred to CSULB from a community college, I doubt you'll have to write an essay as a freshman undergrad.
