as well as networking opportunities to advance their careers or enter new fields.
EIP partners with CSUF colleges and departments to offer bachelor’s and master’s degrees,
as well as preparation programs for those looking to apply to professional health-care,
law and business schools.
EIP expands access to University classes through Open University, Summer Session and
Winter Session. Open University registration is open to the general public; Summer
and Winter Sessions help Cal State Fullerton students graduate on-time or early.
Our lifelong learning opportunities range from programs for children to retirees,
and include an on-campus arboretum with classes and events for those of all ages.
Online programs are structured with lectures and assignments, and allow you to interact
and communicate with students and instructors/professors online.
F-1 international degree students can apply for a permit to work off-campus based
on economic hardship if they meet the following preconditions:
Students must have been in F-1 status for at least one full academic year at CSUF
before they begin the application process
Students must be in good academic standing at CSUF (not on probation)
Students must prove to USCIS that employment is necessary due to severe economic hardship
caused by circumstances beyond student's control that arose AFTER obtaining F-1 status
Students must make a good faith attempt to find on-campus jobs first. If your on-campus
employment salary is insufficient to meet your expenses, be able to provide evidence
of this (example: letter from supervisor stating current salary)
