California State University, Stanislaus has added more than 60 courses and class sections in a variety of fields to its fall schedule with the help of $1.1 million in federal stimulus funds.
 

Attention: All Currently Enrolled Students

Funded by stimulus monies, some additional courses and sections were opened for Fall 2010 to help students continue progress toward their degree.

The initial application filing period for admission to the Spring 2011 term begins on August 1, 2010. However, because the California Governor and Legislature have not yet adopted a budget, CSU does not know how many students it can admit. While each campus will process your application conditionally, no offer of admission will be sent until we know more about the budget, including funding to support an increase in CSU’s enrollment.

California State University Stanislaus today released an accounting summary of the 50th Anniversary Fundraising Gala, hosted by the University Foundation on June 25. Total fundraising surpassed expectations by raising more than $473,000, with net proceeds of over $207,000, making it the most successful fundraiser held in CSU Stanislaus history.

Dr. Ham Shirvani, President of CSU Stanislaus, praised the Foundation for its aggressive and successful fundraising efforts.

Incoming freshmen from throughout California will participate in the 24th Summer Bridge Program at California State University, Stanislaus from July 5-24.

A total of 45 students from the ages of 17 to 20 will prepare for their first-ever college experience, living in the Village apartments on campus and receiving an orientation to higher education that includes English and mathematics instruction, academic advising and other activities. The program features an English course taught by CSU Stanislaus faculty and preparation for the mathematics placement test.

For the third consecutive year, California State University, Stanislaus students have won internship scholarships from the Society for Human Resource Management. The students learned of the honor during the organization’s 2010 conference, held June 27-30 in San Diego. The three $5,000 internship scholarships were among 20 awarded and equaled the number won by CSU Stanislaus students last year.
 

CSU Stanislaus President Hamid Shirvani was among the national education leaders who gathered with legislators at the Annual Meeting of the Southern Regional Education Board in West Virginia this week to discuss how to substantially improve college completion rates.
 
CSU Stanislaus’ success in student retention and graduation has become well known. The University retains about 82 percent of incoming freshmen. About 50 percent of freshmen graduate within six years.
President Shirvani sees room to improve these already outstanding numbers.
