Admissions and Records

The Office of Admissions and Records paves the way for student success through services that begin with the application to California State University, Northridge, and culminate with graduation. For admission, we receive prospective students’ applications and evaluate domestic and international transcripts. For transfers, we articulate coursework from other institutions of higher education to establish equivalencies within the CSUN academic curriculum. During their studies, we interpret enrollment policies, guide registration, provide degree planning tools, and safekeep records to verify enrollment and GPA. As graduation nears, we assist students with applying for their bachelor’s degree, offer guidance to meet all degree requirements and verify degree completion. Beyond graduation, we maintain students’ permanent CSUN academic record. As a major operational area within the Division of Academic Affairs, Admissions and Records develops innovative solutions and performs integral functions to serve, support and empower students in pursuit of higher education, and to foster engagement within the CSUN community.
