Early Start Program
The Early Start Program is suspended for Summer 2020.Â
The goal of the Early Start Program (ESP) is to better prepare students in written composition and mathematics/quantitative reasoning before the fall term of freshman year, improving students’ chances of successful completion of a baccalaureate degree. Please note:
- If required to participate in ESP, as determined by multiple measures, students will begin in the summer before the start of the freshman year.
- For general information about ESP including fees and course listings, visit the CSU Early Start Program page. Students are encouraged to visit the campus website for ESP information once admitted.
- Eligible financial aid applicants with an Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) of $5,500 or less will be eligible for waiver of the per unit ESP fee. For more information on assessments, placements and the Early Start Program, please visit the CSU Early Start Program page.
