Fall 2025 Applications and Priority Review Dates
The Cal State Apply application period for fall 2025 opens Oct. 1. We’re encouraging students to apply by our priority review deadlines, Nov. 15 and Dec. 15. Meeting a priority review deadline helps our admissions team process applications sooner, and can lead to students receiving their admissions decision faster. We’re sharing this information as a heads up in case any students mistakenly interpret it to mean the final application deadline has changed. CSUN will continue to accept applications through Jan. 31, 2025.

Save the Date for CSUN Open House
Join us on Saturday, Oct. 26, from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., for an all-access look at our campus, programs and services. This year’s event features two new presentations — a session geared toward undecided students and a session designed to help parents better understand the college application process. (This session will be offered in English and Spanish.) Please see this flyer for more info.

New Discover CSUN Site — A “Greatest Hits” Collection of CSUN Features

Major Spotlight: Music Industry Studies
Speaking of greatest hits . . . CSUN’s Music Industry Studies major teaches the business side of music — from current trends in music publishing to e-commerce, marketing and more. The program prepares students for careers in producing, distributing and managing, and promoting music and creative talent. As part of the program, students can gain hands-on experience by participating in VOVE, CSUN’s student-run record label.
