California State University-Long Beach Stats, Info and Facts

The campus is beautiful and conveniently located. There are plenty of services available that accommodate students who commute and those who live on campus.

universal studio is less than a hour away

I personally really like being at Cal State Long Beach. For the most part, people are really friendly. At the beginning of the semester, people will come sit at your table at breakfast, lunch, or dinner and begin to have a conversation with you. It's really not that hard making friends here. I love my group of friends and living on campus is definitely a plus. My closest groups of friends live on campus and we are always in each others' rooms doing homework or just hanging out. The campus is really large, but it's also really pretty with lots of trees. There's a beach about ten minutes away with a bus that can take you there. If you're worried about transportation, the city buses are free for all Cal State students. The Rec Center(the gym) is amazing and there's tons of different machines to use and work out on. They even have a rock climbing wall. They offer different free exercise classes for students to take.

There are a great number of club activities, varieties of food and people that is presented here at this school. Club activities such as: religion, sports, martial arts, art, education, community service and the Student Union.

Unfortunately, this is a very difficult university to get into due to the number of applications that the university receives.
