Reciprocal Services

Career Counseling and Employment Services are made available to alumni of other California State Universities through a long-standing reciprocal service policy.  There is no grace period following the last period of enrollment at a sister institution in the CSU.  Annual fees apply upon utilization of the services.

Alumni of other CSU campuses will be asked to verify their alumni status by presenting a letter or card of reciprocity from the Career Center of their home campus.  CSUDH services may not be utilized until a letter or card of reciprocity is presented.  Reciprocal service clients may utilize the same services that are offered to CSUDH alumni with the exception of Education Placement File Service.  Participation in the On-Campus Interview Program is on a space available basis.

Students of other CSU campuses are also eligible for the above services if their home campus is outside a 50 mile radius from CSUDH.  (CSU Los Angeles, CSU Fullerton, and CSU Long Beach are within 50 miles of CSUDH.)  Alumni fees will apply.
