 " Very good school, small but a tight knit community has its perks. Very comfortable dorms, and many people accompanying them. The social scene is very good with parties happened frequently. The school is near a plaza that has everything you could need. Unfortunately the city is quite bland and you will need to drive a decent ways to find some fun things to do. Overall the school is very well put together and has the facilities and resources to make sure you graduate with tons of knowledge in your field. "

 " You will not regret attending CSUMB. It's a place where you like you are part of a community. The computer science program is great but it also depends on the effort you put into your work. Most grads get a job after graduation; however, I decided to go straight to grad school and do an internship. Some administrative staff was difficult to deal with when I was in need of reasonable accommodations. Other than that the professors and students were friendly. There are networking events and workshops that are helpful. The area is nice, plus there's a shopping center, beach, and theater within walking distance of the campus. "

 " CSUMB has a beautiful campus by the beach! The school is currently expanding and building brand new facilities. I would recommend living on campus, the dorms are cozy and it is a great way to meet new students like yourself. "

 " Great welcoming community! I enjoyed my undergrad years there and was so glad I ended up coming to this school! I’ve meet some wonderful people along the way that will help me along my academic career. I also was able to expand my network and really start to make long lasting connections with my peers, teacher staff and academic support staff. "

 " Nice Campus,  the campus needs more parking.
Academic staff must be improved: more quality and younger instructors, prepare students with better academic plans, more helps for senior capstone projects. "
