CSUS Enrolls A Rich and Diverse Blend of Students CSUS students come from every “nook and cranny” of the community, from across the state and nation, and from throughout the world. The University provides students from these very diverse backgrounds with a rare opportunity to interact with each other intellectually, culturally and socially in a collegiate setting. More than 100 nations are represented in the University’s student community. Likewise, a number of CSUS students enroll at cooperating overseas universities, and earn credit toward degree owe ” wate ie objectives, as part of the prestigious California State University International Programs. The University is continuing and strengthening its attempts to attract and retain students from ethnic minority, low income, and other backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in higher education. This “educational equity”’ effort involves the entire University community. Offices providing specific assistance to non- traditional students include: Student Affirmative Action, the Educational +e - Opportunity Program, Students with Disabilities, and CAMP. Their efforts are suplemented by specific advising and academic preparation programs provided by the faculty. Although over ninety percent of the approximately 1500 new freshmen are nineteen years old or younger the average student age remains in the mid-20’s. The PASAR program serves the increasing number of older students who are “‘re-entering’’, often after a long lapse in their education.
