Stanislaus State has entered into an agreement through the Maddy Institute to join with Fresno State, Cal State Bakersfield and the University of California, Merced in developing a greater understanding of public policy and to support the development of student skills in the area of public service.

The announcement came during a press conference held on Friday, Aug. 16 on the Fresno State campus.

In order to secure your spot in the incoming class, you will need to meet the requirements listed in your myStanState student center "To Do" list. Follow these steps to complete your Becoming a Warrior item.
