A larger than expected influx of incoming freshmen and transfers for the fall 2013 semester have prompted CSUN officials to put a hold on admitting first time transer applicants for the spring 2014 term.
"We deeply regret having to take this action,” said Provost Harry Hellenbrand, “but our unprecedented fall enrollment, which could total more than 10,000 new students, does not leave us the budget to accept most students in the spring."
The university will continue to accept new graduate students in STEM programs (science, technology, engineering and math), nursing students, new veterans, second baccalaureate students in STEM and nursing and new credential students.
First time transfer applicants who qualify under the Student Transfer Achievement Reform Act (STAR) may also be admitted.
Applications for new students for the Fall 2014 semester will be accepted from Oct. 1 to Nov. 30, 2013.
