Open University

Open University is a program available to anyone who wants to attend a college course without being admitted to the university. If you are a community member wanting to take a course for personal enrichment, a student looking to start your college career or an international student wanting to study abroad for a short time, Open University allows you the flexibility to enroll in courses on a space-available basis and earn college credit. Open University is available at all 23 CSU campuses.

In addition to Open University, anyone can take courses during the summer and during intersession by enrolling through Extended Education and paying self-support fees.
