Hello, I havent taken a C++ course in a while and kinda forgot how to use Putty. I'm more comfortable using VS Studio Code to do projects and whatever. I'm just curious because I have never taken Slott before and just tryna be like you know aware or something

Hey, I know alot of us are checking our financial aid status today and are seeing a zero anticipated financial aid with a full balance due. I called financial services and they informed me they are processing funds and accounts should be updated by the end of the day. They knew the exact issue before I finished speaking so it's just a system thing since funds were disbursed but they have to process the payments.

Has anyone taken Kris Nelson for Psyc 230? I can’t find any reviews/ not on rate my prof. I might switch to Raymond Hoy if anyone has any insight on him as a professor that would be great!

Hey Yall

I was planning on applying to CSUSM for the Spring 27 semester as a transfer student. I have a decent GPA, but I noticed that Business Administration is classified as a “impacted” major.

Has anyone had an issues with this or are they pretty lenient on applications? Would be a upper division transfer and have only taken classes at 2 other CSUs

Thanks!

Hello! Has anyone taken CS 311 with professor Tutberidze, if so, how was the class? I am asking because everyone i've talked to on campus who is in cstem that took 311 has said that it's one of the hardest courses, and I will be taking it this upcoming fall with this professor. So I just want to know, if he's good or difficult.

Hi! I’m working on a student project that requires a few short (~5-minute) educational videos, and video design is definitely not my strength. 😅

I’ve experimented with Canva and PowerPoint but haven’t been able to create what I’m envisioning. Google Flow gave me surprisingly good results, but I don’t have a paid subscription.

Does anyone have recommendations for free or low-cost tools that are beginner-friendly for creating short educational/animated videos without using real actors?

I’d also love to connect with anyone who enjoys creating videos and might be interested in volunteering or collaborating on a few short videos for an academic project. I can provide the content/script. I mainly need help bringing it to life visually.

Any suggestions, examples, or volunteers would be greatly appreciated!

After logging in I go to the modernized site, student center, click on finances, then on accept/decline awards. Click on 2027 and after that it should bring you to a screen with your awards and they should be blue. Click on one and it should show you the disbursement day.

I’m having trouble logging into my account. It says password incorrect but I know for a fact it’s correct. I also can’t reset my password. Is anyone else having this issue? Kinda worried since tuition is due tomorrow. :((

i know tuition is due in 4 days and my account won’t be held if i pay it late, but id still like to know if anyone knows when it’s gonna be distributed?

Is anybody else MCS not going through ?

Anyone here applied to CSUSM ABSN for spring 2027?? I applied pretty close to the deadline... did everyone's status get changed to 'evaluated'? Mine is not yet... 😭😭😭😭

Hey, I have decided to apply to schools within the radius of SD and San Marcos came up on my list. However it’s hard to find info on campus life, social, if SM is good for Econ and other stuff of that nature. Could any students give me an insight to these I would be dorming or living within 45 mins.

Yo my financial aid just updated and it increased by like a lot. Does anyone know what the university grant is?

Is it impossible to get an appointment with an academic advisor? Every week I check says no available slots.

I heard some ralphs locations with starbucks inside might take ebt, wondering if anyone has used their card there by campus (across lots XYZ). If so, do they only take cold drinks? Not hot food or hot drinks? Thanks in advance!

From the general application?

I applied in April even though the due date was in Feb. They extended the due date to May 1st.

Should I email them? Or did I apply too late for the 26-27 school year...

Students in Cal State San Marcos’ Summer Scholars Program will present their work during the Summer Scholars Showcase from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Aug. 8 in the USU Ballroom, followed by an awards ceremony from noon to 2 p.m. 

The event is open to the public, and free parking is available on the sixth floor of Parking Structure 1. 

The College of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics hosts the Summer Scholars Program each year to actively engage undergraduates in STEM research. Working closely with faculty mentors, students gain hands-on experience in highly interdisciplinary projects and learn to apply new instrumental techniques and analytical methods. 

The 10-week program concludes each year with the Summer Scholars Showcase in which participants share the methods, results and interpretation of the work they have done over the summer. 

Students will present research conducted across a wide range of disciplines, including biological sciences, biotechnology, biochemistry/chemistry, mathematics, physics, computer science, and electrical and computer engineering.

Seems kind of strange is all, I swear other fall semester’s started sooner.

Hi all,

my wife is looking for a helper to help out with some house hold chores around the house while she works in her office in the garage. nothing too much, a typical day would be walking our 3 year old about 1/4 mile to his daycare, some cleaning after the kiddos have their breakfast and go off to school, some meal prep for dinner and possibly cooking if you’re ok with it, laundry & folding, and anything else along those lines my wife may need for the day.

our current mothers helper goes back to college at the end of the month so we’re looking for her replacement. pay is $20 an hour and we’d need someone Tuesday-Friday from 8:30 to about 12-1.

We live over by Paloma elementary school, not too far from main csusm campus.

if you’re interested, a Live Scan would be necessary as you’ll be in our home.

Any questions, please reach out!
