CA) – California
State University, Dominguez Hills (CSUDH) will host “A Day at Dominguez” from

An event organized each semester,
A Day at Dominguez welcomes thousands of middle and high

to talk to faculty, staff and current CSUDH students during
the day’s academic fair, tour the campus and on-campus
housing facilities, and attend workshops further highlighting
the academic programs, financial aid opportunities, and student
life activities offered at CSUDH. Informational sessions
for parents also are offered and will be provided in both
English and Spanish.
A key component of A Day at Dominguez is on-site admissions.
Admissions and records staff will be available to meet
with prospective students and discuss their admissions
eligibility, and if eligible, they can be admitted to CSUDH
right then. If a student cannot be admitted, staff will
advise him or her on a course of action. Students wanting
to take advantage of on-site admissions must first apply
online at www.csumentor.edu, bring official transcripts
and test scores, and a check or money order for $55.
Although anyone on campus that day can attend A Day at Dominguez,
registration is encouraged and lunch will be provided for
only those who register. To sign up online, go to www.csudh.edu/outreach/dayatdominguez.html.
