University Semester Abroad
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR UNIVERSITY SEMESTER ABROAD STUDENTS:
- As a guest student to CSUF in the University Semester Abroad Program, COVID-19 vaccination is required if you are enrolled in course sections through Open University. For those eligible, an approved booster dose is also required. There are no options to request a religious or medical exemption if enrolled through Open University.
- Once enrolled in a course section, when you log into the CSUF Portal to access your course, you will receive a Portal Message requesting you document your vaccine information. You will not be able to bypass this message and access your course, until you have completed the information requested.
- Visit Titans Return for additional university information and CSUF guidelines regarding the current status of the campus.
