CSU Channel Islands welcomes first time freshmen applicants. A student is considered a first-time freshman if they have graduated from (or is still in) high school and who has not enrolled in a regular (non-summer) session at any college or university following graduation. If you have already graduated from high school and have attended a college/university after your high school graduation, you may be considered a transfer student. Refer to the Transfer Admission Website to determine admissibility.

CSU Channel Islands will accept applications for Fall 2021 from high school seniors from October 1, 2020- December 31, 2020 (deadline has been extended).

We invite all students to participate in our virtual services to receive further information regarding CSUCI admission processes, overview of CSUCI, and virtual campus tours and presentations.
