We have had such a great experience at CSUDH. I wasn’t sure if we were making the right decision to attend there as the rating on some sites (like Niche) are not very good. We decided to go with our gut and chose the school that “felt” best. I am so happy we did! My daughter has been thriving here. The campus is beautiful and her professors are well-prepared, fair and accessible. The dorms are brand new and incredibly beautiful, and she’s met lots of really nice, intelligent, highly motivated students here. It’s a wonderful campus with new, modern facilities and a ton of supports for students - especially first years. There are so many bonuses here - free mental health care, periodic free food and supplies, cool promotional events and the price is very reasonable too. CSUDH is definitely a university on the rise!
I have a tremendous amount of experience in working with students from all different socio-economic backgrounds. I have had the opportunity to work as a Peer Mentor for the Encounter to Excellence Program at CSUDH where I provided emotional and academic guidance, severed as a Supplemental Instructor Leader for the Toro Learning and Testing Center at CSUDH where I promoted independent learning, and worked as an English Tutor for Southwest Community College where I fostered academic success. All of these opportunities have been presented to me because of CSUDH’s networking circle.
Overall my experience at CSUDH was not good. I attended during the pandemic and noticed how lazy many professors were. I had subjects where I was either learning straight from Youtube videos or teaching myself because professors were reading off their notes in math-based courses. I also had a really bad experience with their financial aid office multiple times. Their departments and counselors are not that great. I had one counselor who seemed to care the rest would not show up to scheduled meetings. One time I went into the financial aid office and was cut off 3 times by a tenured employee because she was waiting for a personal call from her nephew while I was there worried about losing my housing. Lastly, I had a professor yell and then hang up on a zoom meeting with myself and a team of students, I tried reporting her but nothing was done. If I had known this was going to be my experience I would not have attended.
