The best thing about CSUN has to be the campus. We have trees everywhere. We even have our own orange grove. The architecture of all the different buildings is so varied and interesting. There are many places to eat or just sit and have a conversation with one of your friends. There are amazing places to study as well, like one of the many lawns or in the massive library.

The best thing about CSUN is the environment that surrounds you. I love how diversity of the school. The options to what class to take or clubs to join are also very diverse. I believe no matter what you'll find a way to fit into this school even though you may be new and fresh. Northridge gives plenty of opportunities to students to get active. They have an amazing Student Union located on campus that really brings the student out as a true Matador.

The thing that I consider to be best about my school is its population. The diverese population allows you and invites you to be open to many cultures. It also allows you to become friends with people who can share different views and perspectives on different topics, thus making you learn and acknowledge different traditions and ideas.

The music program is absolutely fantastic and you can always find somewhere to just hang out around campus. The variety of food on campus is reasonably good there are a lot of good food options within walking distance.

My school's best feature is the outdoor areas in which a person can relax near a duck pond, a botanic garden or under a tall tree which helps forget I live in an urban city.

The best thing about my school has to be the diversity. Being in California you can expect there to be many different people, and Northridge is the perfect example of diversity.

The theatre program; that's one of the main reason I chose to go to CSUN. I'm a CTVA major and (hopefully soon) a theatre minor. CSUN is known for it's profesional actors and actrresses.

The fact that classrooms are open 24 hours a day. The library closes around 11:00pm, so sometimes you need more time to actually get work done. I always just go to a classroom and fill up the white boards with all the information I know. Besides the classrooms, the free tutoring in every subject you can possibly imagine is a big plus. Many students tend to be shy in asking for help from the professor, so it benefits the student to go to a tutor that is around the same age and that has experienced the same struggles.

The best thing I consider about Cal State Northridge is that the school is multi-cultural. There are so many ethnicites in one school and teh best part about that is the fact that mixed cultures hang out together, study together, and help each other out. This diversity makes one, as a student, feel very comfortable and confident. Coming from a school that had mostly a student population of Hispanics/latinos, meeting people from different cultures, race, and ethnicity, is an experience that is enjoyable and new.

The willingness of others to reach out to you. Even though CSUN is a commuter school, people will go out of their way to make sure you're enjoying your experience. I joined a sorority and found that almost all of the girls were willing to do anything for me. They were instantly my sisters. Everyone feels comfortable on campus and everyone is open to new relationships.
