The California State University is the largest system of senior higher education in the nation. The 23 campuses and five off-campus centers extend from Arcata, located about 300 miles north of San Francisco, to San Diego. The oldest campus is San Jose State, founded in 1857, while the newest is CSU Channel Islands. The CSU produces 50% more business graduates, computer scientists, and engineers than all other California universities and colleges combined. CSU also prepares two-thirds of the state’s public school teachers educated in California.CSU assesses the English and math skills of all entering students for placement in English and math classes using the SBAC testing done in the Tamalpais High School District. The CSU has eliminated the ELM and EPT tests. Some students may be required to complete the CSU Early Start Program as a condition of admission. The CSU Early Start Program requires students who do not perform well on the tests, or are not exempt by other means, to strengthen their English and/or math skills the summer before enrolling in their freshman year. For further information regarding Early Start, contact the CSU campus that you plan on attending or visit the Early Start website.The California State University Campuses
