" California State University, Long Beach overall is a great school which is a very large campus has many different interesting building like the pyramid and we also have a Japanese Garden which is a very relaxing place just to walk around if you have free time between classes. Even though Business is not an impact major at CSULB, I love the teaching style of the professors there, at least with those I attended their courses. Overall, I am very happy that I join CSULB family. "

" CSULB is a great school with a really nice beach feel. The people are open-minded and helpful. I had a handful of night classes, but there are plenty of lights at night and I usually felt safe and if not, I could look for a red SOS button stand which are scattered around campus. The food options are not the best but not the worst either- Starbucks, Robeks, were my go-tos. The only caveat about that is that the food options were all located in one area so you'd have to walk a lot on the large campus if you were on the other side. They have farmers market a few times a year and so many events hosted by the clubs there. Teachers are good but like most students, I would look them up on ratemyprofessor first. "

" Great school! Is a great school! This school is one of the biggest schools in California. The professors are there to help and treat you with respect. The campus is clean and very spacious . Anyone can take a tour here so is amazing if you are willing to check it out I recommended. "

" This is a great school with fantastic staff. There's resources available should you need help with anything. The atmosphere is really nice and everyone is friendly. Classes can be spread across campus though that is dependent on what courses you are taking. Ideal parking can be hard to find during peak hours (morning to afternoon). "

" CSULB is a good school and its design and art program is pretty popular. It offers many opportunities for students to find intership or work with professionals. My only bad experience with CSULB was when I was accepted to CSULB as an transfer student. At that time, I was told in the acceptance letter that I was not admitted to the interior design BFA program, but instead I am accepted to the BA Design program. I was told that I could later apply to the BFA program but there is no information about how long it could take for me to move from the BA program to the BFA program and graduate. After I had accepted the offer, I came to realize that, in order to get my BFA in interior design, it would take me 4 years in total, and as my academic advisor stated, "there is not exception." I thought that they could handle the situation better and let students know beforehand that it would take 4 more years, even if one already had 2 year in CC, to go from the BA program to the BFA program, and not telling them after the school have accepted them.
