How are we doing?
Continuing Education programs not affected by CSU admissions closure
Courses offered by the Division of Continuing and Global Education (CGE) are not impacted by the California State University admissions freeze and enrollment is open for all courses offered through CGE.
Because CGE is a self-supporting, non-state funded program, all courses will continue to be open for registration.
Among the opportunities available through CGE are Open University, which allows individuals to register for regular university courses on a space available basis without being admitted to Fresno State; and Intersession, which occurs between regular semesters and offers credit courses that anyone can attend.
California State University, Fresno is sensitive to the ever-changing demands of adult life and attempts to meet these diverse educational needs through its many offerings and formats.
Admission Requirements
Admission to the University is not necessary in order to take Extension courses; however, enrollment in Extension courses does not constitute formal acceptance into the University. Extension courses are open to high school graduates, college students, and other individuals, provided they have met the stated course prerequisites. Course prerequisites can be determined by contacting departmental advisers or the instructor, or by consulting the California State University, Fresno General Catalog.
The Division of Continuing and Global Education is located on the first floor of the Kremen Education Building.
