An employee can be recognized for superior accomplishments, within specified campus guidelines. Life transition events like birthdays, weddings, and the like, occur to everyone so cannot be considered superior accomplishments. Awards are permitted within the campus defined monetary limits and subject to IRS reporting requirements. Awards may be given to recognize years of service at the time of retirement, but the statutory authority to make awards does not authorize paying for a “retirement party”.

The California gift of public funds doctrine set forth in the California Constitution, Article XVI, § 6, prohibits the giving or lending of public funds to any person or entity, public or private.
 
“In determining whether an appropriation of state funds or property is to be considered a gift, the primary question is whether the funds are to be used for a “public” or “private” purpose. If they are for a “public purpose”, they are not a gift within the meaning of [§6 of art. XVI]. If an expenditure serves a primary public purpose, it is not a gift even if it incidentally benefits an individual.

CSUSB will be in sync with other semester campuses so that students may participate in the curricular and co-curricular activities offered by campuses.  Some of these activities may include study abroad programs, internships, and National Student Exchange Programs.

Over the academic year, the student services provided will not be interrupted. On the contrary, offices will make adjustments to ensure that students are supported before, during, and after the conversion to semesters.

Semester conversion should not affect your financial aid package. While the semester schedule will decrease the number of financial aid check disbursements, your financial aid is awarded for the academic year regardless of whether the school’s calendar is quarter or semester based. Financial aid recipients will see an adjustment in their award packages to accommodate this difference. The Office of Financial Aid will advise students on the impact semester conversion may have, if any, on their financial aid eligibility.

The cost per term will be higher because there are only 2 terms (semesters) vs. 3 terms (quarters); however, the cost for the annual academic year will not be affected by the semester conversion.

No. Regardless of whether it is a quarter or semester academic schedule the rent/meals are based on a similar amount of days in the academic year. Student Housing and Residence Life will continue to contract with students from the start of school and the contract will run through the last day of finals. Housing and Residential Education is committed to offering continuous housing to ensure our students will retain the right to stay on campus during the break period with full access to their residential hall. Contact Housing and Residential Education.

No. For undergraduate students, under the semester system the same fee structure will apply. See CSU Fee Schedules. The annual cost of your education will not be impacted by the quarter to semester transition. However, the cost per term will be higher on semesters because there are only 2 semesters, which means annual fee is divided in half (as opposed to the quarter system, where the annual fee is divided into thirds because there are three quarters).

For graduate students, the amount of tutition will vary depending on your program.

See your academic advisor to determine if the conversion will affect your program of study.

Yes. Please see our Student Pledge, which pledges that a student's earned credits will not be lost in the conversion.

In order to plan a course of study that leads to successful completion of your degree, without loss of credit, you should meet with your Graduate Coordinator or Graduate Advisor as soon as possible.  If you are nearing completion of your degree, make every effort to graduate prior to the conversion in Fall 2020.  If you are not nearing completion, work with your Graduate Coordinator or Advisor to develop a plan of study to make the transition. If there are quarter courses that will not have a semester equivalent, either plan to take those courses prior to Fall 2020 or work with your coordinator/advisor to determine an acceptable semester course substitution.

You can find out who your academic advisor is by going to this link: https://www.csusb.edu/advising/services/who-my-advisor

myCAP is an academic planning tool, which allows students to plan courses to take throughout their academic career.

Associated Students Incorporated officers serve as members of the Q2S steering and subcommittees and they participate fully in the process.  We also included both graduate and undergraduate students who are not members of ASI in focus groups and information sessions to ensure that the student voice and perspective is included and helps to shape decisions regarding the conversion.

The last summer on quarters (Summer 2020) will be a 5-week session, from June 22, 2020 through July 23, 2020, with finals on July 27-28, 2020.

Two commencements will still be offered. Fall commencement ceremonies will be held in December while Spring commencement ceremonies will be held in May.

If an issue or conflict arises stay calm and communicate with the trip leaders. The trip leaders will do their best to accommodate you and the other individual. The goal is to respect one another,
as well as use compassion and kindness in dealing with resolving conflict.

Depending on the location there will be different types of wildlife - leaders are trained during their briefing to know what to do in case we come across wildlife.

Trips include camping, backpacking, hiking, cultural, service, rafting, surfing, kayaking and snowboarding to name a few. Adventure is also proud to sponsor TRACKS, the Alternative Break Program.
TRACKS stands for travel, recreation, adventure, culture, knowledge, and service.

Class sizes are dependent on a wide range of factors including pedagogy (teaching practices), department full-time equivalency targets, availability of instructors, and numbers of students needing to take the course.  The same factors will be at play with the semester system and will inform class size and number of course sections.

Currently, undergraduate students need to complete 180-quarter units to graduate. That works out to 45 units per year for four years, or 15 units per quarter.  Most quarter courses are 4-units, so a student will typically take four (4) courses per term to graduate in four years.

Under the semester model, students will need to complete 120-semester units to graduate. That works out to 30 units per year for four years, or 15 units per semester.  Most semester courses are 3-units, so a student will typically take five (5) courses per term to graduate in four years.

The length of a semester is 15 instructional weeks, as compared to 10 instructional weeks in the quarter model.  Class sessions will be shorter but the time over the entire term will be longer, 45 hours for a 3-unit semester class whereas it is 40 hours for a 4-unit quarter class.

Yes, although we will continue to admit the majority of our undergraduate students during the fall admission cycle, while graduate programs, self-support programs, and special populations may include a spring and/or summer admission cycle.

Both the quarter and semester models require at least 147 instructional days during the academic year. The semester system divides the year into two terms of 15 instructional weeks, typically beginning in August and ending in May. An optional summer term is also available. The quarter system divides the academic year into three terms per year of 10 weeks each, typically beginning in September and ending in June, plus an optional summer term.

Graduate Programs

Please visit the Office of Graduate Studies website for a list of graduate coordinators.

An 'Overaward' exists when a financial aid recipient has received more money from the financial aid programs (and other programs - like DOR assistance for non-disability related expenses) than they should, they have exceeded the absolute ceiling (or cap) set in the federal regulations (either the Cost of Attendance' or student's 'Need'). If the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships has an Overaward, they have a serious problem. The Federal government requires the institution to repay the 'over-awarded amount' out of institutional funds or to collect it back from the student.

The DOR regulations and the Title IV regulations have similar sounding phrases in them. However, the Title IV regulations at 34 CFR 673.05 (e) require ...'The institution shall take into account those resources it -- I) Can reasonably anticipate at the time it awards. , or (iii) Otherwise knows about.' Further specific guidance has been provided to the Financial Aid community in the Federal Student Aid Handbook (03-04, page 1-124, paragraph 2), which goes on to direct the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships, that it' ...must coordinate funds available from the vocational rehabilitation agency and from institutional, state, and federal student financial assistance programs to prevent an over-award. The amount of assistance from the vocational rehabilitation agency must be documented in the student's file.' What the Title IV regulations mean specifically is that the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships should ignore DOR funds paid to or on behalf of students for expenses related to their disability. So, if the DOR purchases a special device (like a wheel chair or a hearing aid) or pays another disability related expense, the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships does not consider that kind of assistance as a 'resource,' nor does it consider the cost of that device in the student's 'Cost of Attendance allowance'. However, when the DOR is paying for something that all students (including non-disabled students) must pay, (for example, tuition fees, books, ordinary transportation expenses) then the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships is mandated by the Federal regulations that govern the Title IV Financial Aid programs to 'resource coordinate'. This means that it must look at other sources of funds available to students to assure that students do not receive more than the total 'Cost of Attendance', or an 'Over-award' and document that in the student's file.

We prefer the DOR Counselor fax it to us. We don't know the DOR Counselor's signature but we will recognize the Fax identification line on the fax and will know that a DOR staff member and not the student completed the 'DOR' info exchange form.

The DOR counselor cannot retrieve a copy of the student's grant award letter, unless the student authorizes it. The student's been instructed to provide the (DOR) counselor with the item necessary to evaluate their DOR file. In order for the student to retrieve a copy of his/her grant award letter, they must go to http://finaid.csusb.edu and click on 'Check Status' under 'My Financial Aid'. Once they have downloaded the grant award letter, they then proceed to 'Download' forms under 'Bulletin' to download the 'DOR Info Exchange' form. Both grant award letter and DOR Info exchange form is to be provided to the DOR counselor for evaluation.

The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships has completed the process of awarding grants. The student will not be considered for any further financial aid other than what they have been awarded.

The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships prefers the DOR Counselor completes the form on an annual basis. However, we understand that the DOR can't always predict a student's situation. Therefore, if the DOR Counselor make the best guess possible, and needs to revise or cancel the estimated DOR amount at a later date they can forward a new form to us and we will revise the award appropriately.

The form is completed by the DOR Counselor to assist in the processing and determining the student's true eligibility for grant, work and loan programs.

The DOR Counselor retrieves obtains the form from the student or can also download the form from the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships website. The DOR Counselor completes the form and faxes it to the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships at 909-537-7024.

Financial aid disbursements are determined by the total number of enrolled units.  Grants will disburse ten days prior to the beginning of the term and loans will disbursed during the 1st week of July, based on 6 units of enrollment.  You must also meet Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) conditions.  See SAP Policy for more information.

You are responsible for paying all or a portion of your summer tuition fees if either of the two conditions occur:

1. If your summer award is not sufficient to pay your full fees, then you must pay the balance by the published drop dates.
2. If you do not qualify for any type of summer financial aid, you are responsible to pay by the published drop dates.

The awarding process will begin after you have enrolled in summer courses. The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships will determine if you are eligible for summer aid. Notification of eligibility will be sent by email and your award can be viewed via MyCoyote...

To be considered for Summer aid, you must do the following:

1. Be admitted to CSUSB in an eligible degree program during the summer and enrolled in at least half-time.
2. Complete a 2021-2022 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or Dream Act application June 30, 2022.

A selection committee comprised of faculty and administrators will review applications and choose applicants for interviews. Applications are typically due in early April, and decisions made at the end of April. Four students are selected as Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellows.

Applicants are selected based on the following criteria:

• Academic promise;
• Potential for a faculty career in academia in core Mellon fields of study, and particularly in the arts, humanities and social sciences;
• Contribution to diversity in their designated fields of study;
• Demonstrated commitment to understanding the barriers faced by underrepresented minorities, breaking down stereotypes, and increasing understanding across racial and ethnic groups;
• Commitment to participating fully and enthusiastically in all aspects of the MMUF program, including attendance at conferences and meetings; and
• as a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, undocumented or DACAmented status.

All students who are at least Sophomores and who have at least 2 more years left in their academic career at CSUSB are welcome to apply for MMUF, though applications are particularly encouraged from African-Americans, Latinos and Latinas, Native Americans, and other under­represented minorities (URM).

The time commitment varies as your research projects progress. Typically, fellows should anticipate spending approximately 10 hours/week attending workshops and activities and working on their independent projects. Fellows will meet weekly at Mellon workshops. Also, fellows are expected to meet regularly with their Mellon faculty mentor. Throughout the academic year, fellows will work on making active progress on their independent research and preparation for graduate school. Summer months should be dedicated to research or other professional development opportunities related to these academic goals, such as the First Summer Fellowship Program (FSFP) in June, and the CSUSB Extended Summer Opportunity in August.

Students must be sophomores/juniors and must have at least 2 years left, though the Mellon funding will only cover 2 years, even if they stay on longer. 

Sophomores or juniors, who:

1. Have a passion for research, teaching, mentorship, and genuinely open to a career in higher education
2. U.S. student (citizen, permanent resident, DACAmented ,or undocumented)
3. Genuinely considering graduate study in a Mellon designated field,
4. Committed to the goals of MMUF.
5. A minimum GPA of 3.5

Yes! The MMUF program is seeking students who enjoy research and want to get the most out of their education.

A fellowship is an agreement to conduct research and participate in a program. In exchange, fellows receive financial support, mentorship, and other benefits.

This refers to students who have not been able to realize their fullest potential because of their educational background. Students from low income backgrounds go to schools that may not be as well-equipped as those in more affluent communities, therefore, not affording them the same educational opportunities.

No, EOP is an admissions program and once admitted you will remain in EOP status throughout your undergraduate education. Students previously admitted through regular admissions at CSUSB cannot be admitted to EOP.

If you were previously an EOP student at another CSU campus, you will need to contact our office to complete a CSU EOP Transfer Verification form.

EOP and EOPS share the same goals and objectives in assisting low income, first generation college students.

However, EOP is an admissions program that provides admissions assistance and academic support services.

You must apply EOP and be admitted before enrolling in your first semester at the university and adhere to EOP admissions deadlines.

No, it is not too late to apply to EOP.

You need to log back into your Cal State Apply account and click on the Apply Online tab. Then click on the Supporting Information Tile and then on the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) link. Follow the online prompts for the rest of the application. Remember to hit “SUBMIT” upon completion.

Please note, the CSUSB EOP Application deadline is January 15, 2021.

EOP admits a limited number of applicants each year that do not meet all of the requirements for admission.

Applicants that are considered for an 'exception admission' must demonstrate the motivation and potential to succeed in obtaining a baccalaureate degree.

No. Not all EOP students receive the EOP grant.

The EOP Grant is part of the total financial aid award and is determined by the Financial Aid Office.  The EOP Grant is awarded based on the availability of funds, as well as the student's financial need and class level.

It is highly recommended that students submit their FAFSA or their CA Dream Act application early because awards are based on a first-come, first-served basis.

An EOP student must be responsible for the following:

• Maintain good academic standing
• Complete a minimum of 12-15 units per semester with a 2.0 GPA
• Meet each semester with their counselor
• Utilize academic and student support services
• Maintain current email, a mailing address and phone number with the EOP office

No. EOPS students have an advantage over other applicants because they are familiar with an academic support program, but that does not guarantee admission.

EOPS students are asked to declare their affiliation with EOPS on the Cal State Apply application, but must complete the same application process as everyone else.

No. The EOP determination is set at the time of admission only.

Although lunch is not provided, all attendees are encouraged to bring their lunch to each Literature Circle meeting.

Being on the semester calendar, which will begin in August and end in May, will put us in alignment with the other California State University campuses, our California Community Colleges, and more than 90% of colleges and universities nationwide.  This will make it easier for transfer students to apply course credits toward degree completion.  It will also make it easier for all students to compete on the summer job market because CSUSB students will now be available at the same time as those attending other universities.  The semester calendar will also align better with the K-12 school-year calendar, supporting those of you who are also caregivers or parents of younger children.

In addition to aligning our calendar with other schools, semesters will also create more opportunities to participate in internships, field experiences, and community engagement projects on and off the campus and more time to absorb and learn course material.

Another benefit will be that students will only need to register for classes, pay fees, and complete other administrative tasks twice a year rather than three times a year.

COMMUNICATION WITH OFFICIALS - Only the team captain/coach is allowed to have communication with the game officials. Should a certain player(s) have questions/concerns, they should be directed to the officials via the captain/coach ONLY.

Sec. 1 The notification of the intent to protest must be made immediately before the ball is put into play, or the play will no longer be protested.

1. The captain of the protesting team should immediately notify the official(s) that the game is being continued under protest. Officials will notify the opposing team captain or manager.
2. All interested parties shall take notice of the conditions surrounding the making of the decision that will aid in the correct determination of the issue.

Protest shall be handed in writing to the Recreation Office the next working day. Failure to do so will also negate the protest.

Every participant (faculty, staff and students) must provide evidence that they are members or have paid for a day pass.  All participants will be required to go to the gym and receive a wristband after passing through the turnstiles before their games. In an effort to simplify and make participation more accessible to all, the Intramural department of Recreational Sports requests that all team captains completes their rosters for each sport they are participating in (Names and Student ID number for each player) before the first week of contests. All players must also fill out a waiver form before they are allowed to play.

1. ROSTER SIZE - Rosters will be allowed an unlimited amount of players.
2. SIGNED ROSTERS – Captains are responsible for making sure that each player signs their roster, registers his/her social security number and supplies a valid Coyote One card at game time. The captains also understand and realize that the Department of Campus Recreation DOES NOT HAVE OR PROVIDE MEDICAL INSURANCE in the event a player is injured during the course of the season. In addition, the team captain is responsible to assure that each player reads and fully understands the entire waiver form and that each participant signs and completes the waiver form. Players not filling out their roster sheet or waiver form will be ineligible for that week's game.
3. ADDITIONAL PLAYERS - Teams may add or delete players on their rosters until the end of the third week of the season. These changes must be made the day prior to your game.
4. MINIMUM PLAYERS (Men division) - 6 rostered players shall constitute a full team. Teams may start with 2 players and must maintain a minimum 2 rostered players in the game at all times, otherwise a forfeit will occur.
5. MINIMUM PLAYERS (Coed division only) - 6 rostered players shall constitute a full team. Teams may start with 2 players and must maintain a minimum 2 rostered players in the game at all times, otherwise a forfeit will occur. The following are the only combinations allowed:

1. Pants, shorts, sweats, etc. may be worn with pockets and belt loops as long as safety is not put at risk. In general, any kind of attire is acceptable to participate in as long as the safety of the individual and other participants is not put in question.
2. Jewelry is not allowed - PERIOD! Placing tape over any type of jewelry on any part of the body (ear, nose, eyebrow, etc.) is not allowed, as the jewelry is still present, and presents a safety concern to both the player wearing the jewelry as well as the opponent.

4. The Department of Recreational Sports will provide the game balls for all scheduled games.

Only CURRENT students, staff, faculty, and alumni association members are eligible to participate. A student must have paid his/her fees, which include a portion that is directed toward the Department of Recreational Sports.

A player may play for only one team per league/per day. A player who has played on more than one team without explicit authorization will have all games they played in count as losses, including games played on for their "original team".

If any player is found ineligible for any reason all of the games that he/she has participated in will count as losses.

Teams who have players on their roster who have either been a member of a collegiate team or a professional team must get approval of Recreational Sports before the season begins.

Any team with two or more current or former collegiate and/or professional players, of the sport being played, on their rosters must advise the Department of Recreational Sports in advance and before the program begins. If this is not done, all games played with or without the current/former collegiate and or professional players will be considered losses. The intent of this rule is to make all other participants aware of the circumstances, and to make modifications (if necessary) for championship awards.

Each member of the championship team will receive a Department of Recreational Sports Intramural Championship t-shirt at the conclusion of the program

Any questions, problems, or further information on anything pertaining to the Softball program can be obtained by contacting us.

Teams and players are hereby notified that no such rule exists in softball, which states that a base runner "must slide". This has been and continues to be a standard misconception amongst a majority of softball players and fans alike. On page 65, under POINTS OF EMPHASIS IN the SCMAF rule book, it states under the section of COLLISIONS: "It is the intent of this rule book to avoid collisions whenever possible to prevent injury. AT NO TIME DO WE INSIST OR MAKE IT MANDATORY FOR ANYONE TO SLIDE, ONLY TO AVOID INTERFERENCE WITH A FIELDER. RUNNERS SHOULD ATTEMPT TO AVOID CONTACT WHENEVER POSSIBLE. HOWEVER, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR CONTACT TO OCCUR WITHOUT INTERFERENCE. Please refer to the definitions of interference and obstruction."

1. Postponed or rained-out league games will not be re-played.
2. POSSIBLE RAINED OUT GAMES: The following procedure will be followed in case there is any doubt concerning the condition of the fields immediately following or on a rainy day:

Both the home team and visiting team captains must call the Assistant Coordinator of Recreational Sports by 12 noon on the day of the game. The playability of the field will have been determined by that time.

The umpire at the field location will make any changes due to the condition of the weather AFTER the Department of Recreational Sports has made a decision.

Sec. 1 The notification of the intent to protest must be made immediately before the ball is put into play, or the play will no longer be protested.

1. The captain of the protesting team should immediately notify the official(s) that the game is being continued under protest. Officials will notify the opposing team captain or manager.
2. All interested parties shall take notice of the conditions surrounding the making of the decision that will aid in the correct determination of the issue.

Protest shall be handed in writing to the Recreation Office the next working day. Failure to do so will also negate the protest.

All participants must register their social security number on their roster and have their Coyote One card present at game time at every game. Proper identification consists of a valid Coyote One card and valid social security number. Faculty and staff should follow the same procedure, as do the students. Alumni Association members need a current membership card and a photo ID. The Department of Campus Recreation requires that all teams complete registration of their team before the beginning of the season.

In cases where a participant has an extenuating circumstance (recently transferred, lost ID, etc.), they may still participate. However, the participant must complete the process before their first game. If this is not done, the participant will not be allowed to play until he/she follows the proper procedure.

1. ROSTER SIZE – Rosters can have an unlimited amount of players. A Coed roster must have at least 4 women and 4 men.
2. SIGNED ROSTERS – Captains are responsible for making sure that each player signs their roster, registers his/her social security number and supplies a valid Coyote One card at game time. The captains also understand and realize that the Department of Campus Recreation DOES NOT HAVE OR PROVIDE MEDICAL INSURANCE in the event a player is injured during the course of the season.

Teams forfeiting a game based on this definition will receive a loss for the forfeited game. After 2 forfeits, the team will be dropped from the program.

1. Pants, shorts, sweats, etc. may be worn with pockets and belt loops as long as safety is not put at risk. In general, any kind of attire is acceptable to participate in as long as the safety of the individual and other participants is not put in question.
2. Jewelry is not allowed - PERIOD! Placing tape over any type of jewelry on any part of the body (ear, nose, eyebrow, etc.) is not allowed, as the jewelry is still present, and presents a safety concern to both the player wearing the jewelry as well as the opponent.

6. Teams have the option of batting any number of legally rostered players, from 8 - 16 (with unlimited defensive substitutions), with any remaining rostered players being withheld as substitutes.

COMMUNICATION WITH OFFICIALS - Only the team captain/coach is allowed to have communication with the game officials. Should a certain player(s) have questions/concerns, they should be directed to the officials via the captain/coach ONLY.

NOTE: The starting batting order must be followed, but defensive changes may be made at any time. Players arriving after the 1st pitch of the game may be added to the end of the batting order immediately upon arrival, or must be used as a regular substitute. The scorekeeper need not be notified of any defensive changes, but must be told of any substitution changes. Any batter failing to bat for any reason will be automatically out if no legal substitute is available the first time a batter fails to bat. Said player shall not participate any further in the game. This space shall be skipped for the remainder of the game with no further penalty.

5. If the goalie handles the ball in any way, goal kicks and free kicks or throws by the goalie must touch the floor or be touched by a player before reaching halfway line. If a ball travels over halfway line in the air on a goal kick or goalie throw, the ball will be put in play by the non-offending team by an indirect free kick at halfway line.
6. Rough play (fouls) will be characterized as flagrant and non-flagrant. A flagrant foul will be penalized by direct substitution. Violent, intentional violations such as pushing, tripping, etc. will bring about this penalty. After a penalty, play resumes with an indirect free kick at the spot of the foul. Continual rough play by and individual will result in a game ejection and possible suspension from the league. Non-flagrant fouls will bring about a indirect free kick at the point of the violation only. Any problems or questions which arise during a game will be dealt with by the official. One official will be present for all games and their decisions are final.

1. When the ball is kicked out of boundary, there will be a throw-in by the opposite team where the ball was kicked out. There will be a corner kick when a defensive player kicks it out of boundary at the goal line (end line).
2. On the kickoff to start the game or after a goal, the defending team must be behind the halfway line.
3. If a game results in a tie, there will be a five minute overtime. Afterwards,  if the score remains in a tie there will be a penalty kick shootout.

Intramurals will provide two soccer balls, pennies (to be worn by one of the teams), and goals. Cleats and shin guards are preferred for outdoor soccer.

Games consist of two, 20-minute halves. There will be a five-minute halftime. Games will start on the hour. There will be time for warming up prior to the first game and for 5-10 minutes of warm-up prior to each successive game*(with the exceptions of incidents happening). Games use running time throughout. The clock will be stopped only for injuries or for other extraordinary reasons as the official deems necessary. Goals do not stop the clock. There is no waiting period the game clock starts on the hour.

1. There will only be a maximum of 7 players in play during a match (including the goal keeper).
2. Substitutions have to be notified to the referee and can only occur on a dead ball, including the goal keeper.

Outdoor soccer games are played on the soccer fields located east to the Recreational Center.

1. The dimension of the 7 versus 7 soccer field is, 240 ft in length and 140 ft in width.
2. There will be two 18 ft goal boxes and a halfway line at 120 ft.

Teams with a winning record any winning record will qualify for playoffs. Teams will be determined at the discretion of the commissioner. All decisions are final.

**Again, any rules not specifically addressed will be interpreted along the lines of NCAA outdoor rules and common sense.

Generally, the rules of NCAA outdoor soccer will be used to govern indoor soccer. Still, there will be a number of modifications:

1. There is no offsides in indoor soccer.
2. There is no slide-tackling allowed. To do so results in an indirect free kick at the spot of the violation, a yellow card and a two minute penalty.
3. Defensive players must stand at least 4 yards from the ball during any free kick.
4. On the kickoff to start the game or after a goal, the defending team must be behind the half court line for basketball.
5. Penalty kicks will be taken from the top of the goalie's box (about 8 yards away). All players other than the kicker and the goalie must be behind the mid-court line when the penalty kick is taken.
6. If the goalie handles the ball in any way, a goal kicks and free kicks or throws by the goalie must touch the floor or be touched by a player before reaching mid-court. If a ball travels over mid-court in the air on a goal kick or goalie throw, the ball will be put in play by the non-offending team by an indirect free kick at mid-court.
7. Rough play (fouls) will be characterized as flagrant and non-flagrant. A flagrant foul will be penalized by a two-minute penalty, as in ice hockey. Violent intentional violations such as pushing, tripping, etc. will bring about this penalty. After a penalty, play resumes with a direct free kick at the spot of the foul. Continual rough play by and individual will result in a game ejection and possible suspension from the league. Non-flagrant fouls will bring about a direct free kick at the point of the violation only. Any problems or questions which arise during a game will be dealt with by the official. One official will be present for all games and their decisions are final.

Intramurals will provide two soccer balls, pennies (to be worn by one of the teams), and goals. No cleats or block-soled shoes may be worn.

Games consist of two, 20-minute halves. There will be a five-minute halftime. Games will start on the hour. There will be time for warming up prior to the first game and for 5-10 minutes of warm-up prior to each successive game*(with the exceptions of incidents happening). Games use running time throughout. The clock will be stopped only for injuries or for other extraordinary reasons as the official deems necessary. Goals do not stop the clock. There is no waiting period the game clock starts on the hour.

1. There will only be a maximum of 4 players in play during a match (includes the Goalie).
2. Goalie substitutions have to be notified and can only occur on a dead ball.
3. Any other player substitution can be made

Indoor soccer games are played on the in the Basketball court located in the Student Recreation & Fitness Center.

   2. The ball gets stuck in any location
   3. The ball gets caught on the sides of the goal
   4. The ball ends up behind the goal

ALL players must remain in their designated box at all times (from the 20-yd line to the 20-yd line). If a team is caught outside of this area, a 5yard penalty may be assessed. Participants may only leave their bench / designated boxed area in the following instances:

• To enter a game
• At the conclusion of the game

Every participant (faculty, staff and students) must provide evidence that they are members or have paid for a day pass.  All participants will be required to go to the gym and receive a wristband after passing through the turnstiles before their games. In an effort to simplify and make participation more accessible to all, the Intramural department of Recreational Sports requests that all team captains completes their rosters for each sport they are participating in (Names and Student ID number for each player) before the first week of contests. All players must also fill out a waiver form before they are allowed to play.

In the case of inclement weather jeopardizing game day both the home team and visiting team captains call the Recreation Center office by 12 noon on game day. The condition of the field will have been determined by that time.

Sec. 1 The notification of the intent to protest must be made immediately before the ball is put into play, (the next snap from Scrimmage) or the play will no longer be protested.

1. The captain of the protesting team should immediately notify the official(s) that the game is being continued under protest. Officials will notify the opposing team captain or manager.
2. All interested parties shall take notice of the conditions surrounding the making of the decision that will aid in the correct determination of the issue.

Protest shall be handed in writing to the Recreation Office the next working day. Failure to do so will also negate the protest.

Captains are responsible for making sure that each player signing the WAIVER FORMS understands and realizes that the Department of Recreational Sports DOES NOT PROVIDE insurance. In the event, a player is injured during the course of the season; he/she should have his/her own insurance.

Players may only play for one team during the season. Once a player has played on a team, they must play for that team the entire season. Rosters are required to be submitted into the Department of Recreational Sports by the Captains meeting. Teams may add players to their rosters up until the 3rd week of the season. ALL players must remain in their designated box at all times (from the 20-yd line to the 20-yd line).

Alcohol and tobacco products are prohibited for consumption or any other use by any participant on a flag football team. All players and participants are asked not to use any glass containers and to assist in keeping the fields and surrounding area clean by cleaning up after themselves. Any player(s) under the influence will be ejected.

• Offensive players must have possession of the ball before they can legally be de-flagged.
• Instances where a flag belt has been removed prior to the player advancing the ball, the ball carriers progress can be stopped by a two- handed tag between the shoulders and knees.
• A flag belt, which becomes detached unintentionally, does not cause play to stop.
• Circumstances where a flag belt is removed illegally, play will continue with the option of the penalty (12 yards) or the result of the play.
• Tampering with the flag belt in any way including tying, using foreign materials, etc., will result in a 15-yard penalty from the Line of Scrimmage, loss of down, and player ejection.

A player scoring a touchdown must immediately approach the official so the official can verify the flag belt is "legal". The official will pull the player's flag with one pull. If the flag cannot be removed and the official determines the flag belt has been illegally secured, the touchdown will be negated. The player will be ejected; a 15-yard penalty will be assessed from the previous line of scrimmage and a loss of down.

Offensive lineman must SCREEN defenders. Screening is done by placing your hands and arms either at your side or behind your back. Lineman can never pass the line of scrimmage to screen. All linemen screening must occur behind the line of scrimmage. NO DOWN FIELD SCREENING is permitted. Ball carriers may not run over or through defensive players. The defensive lineman must run around offensive lineman, NOT through them.

If a team is behind by 30 points at any portion of the game, the game will be terminated.

Playoffs will be determined by various factors, including, but not limited to: number of rainouts, availability of teams to compete, and field availability. Teams with winning records will be eligible to play in the playoffs.

• 5-yd: too many players on the field, offsides, delay of game, player with possession that dives, wearing jewelry
• 10-yd: holding (spot of foul), down field blocking, flag guarding, tackling, offensive pass interference, hurdling
• 15-yd: unnecessary roughness (possible ejection), unsportsmanlike conduct, defensive pass interference, and flag tampering
• Loss of down: intentional grounding, illegal forward pass, and offensive pass interference
• Automatic first down: defensive pass interference, roughing the passer

• Pants, shorts and sweat pants without pockets may be worn without belts and belt loops.
• All players must wear a shirt. Shirts must be tucked in so flag belts are visible at all times.
• Jewelry is not allowed - PERIOD! Placing tape over any type of jewelry on any part of the body is not allowed, as the jewelry is still present, and presents a safety concern to both the player wearing the jewelry as well as the opponent. The game will not begin until all jewelry is removed.  (If not removed before game time it will result in a 5 yard penalty)
• All players must wear a closed toe athletic shoe.
• Cleats may be worn, cleats must be made of non-metal material and not exceed 1/2 inch in length.
• Hats are NOT permitted due to safety reasons.

Two 1-minute time outs per team per half and are not cumulative. The clock will stop for:

• Team time outs.
• Official's time out (time starts on the whistle of the official).
• Injuries necessitating time to remove a player from the field.
• During the last two minutes of the second half.

• A ball is dead when: removal of a flag, out of bounds, a safety, a touchdown and ALL FUMBLES.
• A live ball that hits the ground on any play is a DEAD BALL.
• Any fumble occurring down field or past the line of scrimmage is dead where the player loses possession.
• Any fumble behind the line of scrimmage or on the snap the ball is dead where it lands and may not be advanced. If the ball lands in the end zone, it is a safety.
• When a pass, that is intercepted and is fumbled the ball remains with the intercepting team and is spotted where the player lost possession.
• Interceptions may be returned if caught in the end zone. Also a defending team may intercept and return a 1 & 2 point conversion. The score would be the exact point value of the conversion try.

• Touchdown = 6 points
• Point after = 1 point (from the 5 yard line run or pass)
• Point after = 2 points (from the 10 yard line run or pass)
• Safety = 2 points

The team that chooses to punt must announce their choice and the defensive team must have five players on the line of scrimmage. These five players may not cross the line of scrimmage. If the ball hits the ground during game time, it is dead. The punt may be returned so long as the receiver does not muff the ball or, the ball hits the ground first. In both cases the ball will be dead at the spot. * (Note that a team may throw the ball instead of kicking it during the punt)

All teams that fail to show up for their games automatically forfeit the game.  Teams that do not inform the Intramural department at least one full day before their game that they are unable to attend will be assessed a forfeit fee.  Teams will not be allowed to play in the league until that fee has been paid.  Two forfeits from a team regardless if they are consecutive or not will result in that team being removed from the league.

• The winner of the coin toss will have the choice of possession or direction.
• Punts (thrown or kicked) that go out of the end zone will be placed on the 20-yard line.
• Punts that are fumbled are dead balls.
• The center may snap the ball through his/her legs or stand beside the ball to snap it.
• There must be a minimum of three players on the offensive line during each play before the snap.
• All players are eligible to receive a pass.
• There will be a 30 second play clock once the official spots the ball (places it on the ground).
• A player with possession of the ball may NOT leave his/her feet for any reason to advance the ball (diving or hurdling).
• The ball may be lateraled at anytime.
• If an official blows his/her whistle inadvertently the play is DEAD and the down will be replayed or the team may take the result of the play.

Any games that are tied at the end of regulation will have an "overtime" that consists of:

• Each team has FOUR offensive plays from the 20-yd line to score one touchdown and a 1 or 2 point conversion.
• An interception cannot be returned for a touchdown; possession goes to the intercepting team.
• If no one scores within the four plays of overtime, the game will remain a tie.
• Playoffs only, if no one scores after overtime, then each team will continue the overtime format from the 10-yd line until a winner is declared.

Games consist of two 20-minute halves with a 3-minute half time. The clock runs continuously until the final two minutes of the second half.

Only CURRENT students, staff, faculty, and alumni association members are eligible to participate. A student must have paid his/her fees, which include a portion that is directed toward the Department of Recreational Sports.

A player may play for only one team per league/per day. A player who has played on more than one team without explicit authorization will have all games they played in count as losses, including games played on for their "original team".

If any player is found ineligible for any reason all of the games that he/she has participated in will count as losses.

Teams who have players on their roster who have either been a member of a collegiate team or a professional team must get approval of Recreational Sports before the season begins.

Any team with two or more current or former collegiate and/or professional players, of the sport being played, on their rosters must advise the Department of Recreational Sports in advance and before the program begins. If this is not done, all games played with or without the current/former collegiate and or professional players will be considered losses. The intent of this rule is to make all other participants aware of the circumstances, and to make modifications (if necessary) for championship awards.

Each team must consist of seven players. If a team does not have seven players, they may start with six.

All play will be based on the NIRSA Flag Football Rules, with certain exceptions, as noted herein.

The official is given sole discretion in matters of delays. The two types of delays are:

1. Holding the dodgeball for any amount of time greater than what is needed to complete a play.
2. Remaining out of bounds for more time or taking more time than is necessary to retrieve a ball that has gone out of bounds. The official may warn or call a player “ Out “ based, solely, on their discretion for violation of the delay rules.

During play, all players must remain within the boundary lines. Stepping on the line is considered “Out”. The midline will be treated like any other boundary line. The midline extends infinitely, and players may not cross it even when retrieving a ball that is out of bounds. There will be an entry and exit point on each side of each end of the court. Players must enter and exit through this point in order to retrieve dodgeballs that are out of bounds. A player who is retrieving a ball, outside the boundaries is not a legal target

Any player who is outside the boundary lines cannot play a ball.

The Team Bench area and “ Out Zone” (Where players are sent after being called out) are also considered boundary lines. Any player inside one of these areas, who steps on the line or outside of the area, will be penalized. Penalty: Closest player to the infraction will be called out.

The back wall is considered out. Once a ball hits the wall, that ball is treated as if it has hit the ground.

There will be no time outs during games. Teams may only substitute in between games and in case of injury

The object of the game is to eliminate all opposing players by getting them “OUT”. This may be done by:

1. Hitting an opposing player with a thrown ball on or below the shoulders. (A player who intentionally gets hit in the head is also considered “OUT”)
2. Catching a ball Thrown by your opponent before it touches the ground.
3. If a player is knocked out but has already thrown a ball, that ball is live.
4. A deflected ball can be caught, in which case the player who was hit is not OUT and the player who threw the ball is.

The Game begins by placing six dodgeballs along the centerline. Players then take a position behind their end line. Following a signal by the official, teams may approach the centerline to retrieve the balls. This signal officially starts the contest. Once a ball is retrieved, it must be possessed by a player who has one foot established on or behind the 3 meter line before that ball can be thrown.’ The first team to legally eliminate all opposing players will be declared the winner.

The official ball used in the tournament and league play will be a 7” rhino-skin foam ball. Participants must wear shoes. No black-soled shoes are allowed.

The games will be played in the Coussoulis Arena or Coyote Den. The court will be at least 50 ft long and at least 30 ft wide.

Matches will be decided using a “ best-of-nine” format in which the first team to win five (5) games will be declared the winner.

A team roster may have a maximum of 12 players on it. A minimum of 6 players is necessary to compete. The game begins with six players on either team and no one may substitute into a game after it has already started. Others will be available as substitutes. Substitutes may enter the game only in the case of injury.

Any questions, problems, or further information on anything pertaining to the Intramural Basketball season can be obtained

Whenever the difference in the score is 30 points, the game will be terminated, regardless of the amount of time played.

Sec. 1 The notification of the intent to protest must be made before the ball is put back into play, or the play will no longer be protestable.

1. The captain of the protesting team should immediately notify the official(s) that the game is being continued under protest. Officials will notify the opposing team captain or manager.
2. All interested parties shall take notice of the conditions surrounding the making of the decision that will aid in the correct determination of the issue.

Protest shall be handed in writing to the Recreation Office the next working day by 5 p.m. Failure to do so will also negate the protest.

A player may play for only one team per league/per day. A player who has played on more than one team without explicit authorization will have all games they played in count as losses, including games played on for their "original team".

If any player is found ineligible for any reason all of the games that he/she has participated in will count as losses.

Teams who have players on their roster who have either been a member of a collegiate team or a professional team must get approval of Recreational Sports before the season begins.

Any team with two or more current or former collegiate and/or professional players, of the sport being played, on their rosters must advise the Department of Recreational Sports in advance and before the program begins. If this is not done, all games played with or without the current/former collegiate and or professional players will be considered losses. The intent of this rule is to make all other participants aware of the circumstances, and to make modifications (if necessary) for championship awards.

If the score is tied at the end of regulation time, a 2-minute overtime period will be played. Regulation clock will be in effect for the duration of the overtime period. If the score remains tied at the end of the first overtime period, a second overtime period will be in effect. The duration of the second overtime will be 1 minute. If there is still no winner a tie will be declared. Playoff games will continue until there is a winner.

The Department of Recreational Sports will keep the score and game clock.

All play will be based on the NIRSA Basketball Rules, with certain exceptions, as noted herein.

The smoke-free policy is in effect 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Money set aside in your flexible spending account can be used for your out-of-pocket expenses toward smoking cessation paraphernalia including counseling with a doctor's prescription

Ashtrays will be removed from campus because they are a receptacle for a product that will no longer be used on CSUSB property.

CSUSB is committed to protecting the health and safety of university employees, students and visitors on the CSUSB main campus and ancillary campuses and properties. Creating a smoke-free environment allows for a healthy, comfortable and productive living, learning and working environment.

Yes. All events that take place on CSUSB property, including tailgate gatherings and outdoor events, still fall into the smoke-free zones.

There is no “right to smoke” under state or federal law.

There is no association between the adoption of a 100% smoke, vapor, and tobacco-free campus policy and a decrease in student enrollment. In fact, many colleges and universities promote a healthy and tobacco-free campus environment as a way of increasing enrollment.

Please contact Human Resources at hrdept@csusb.edu.

For comments or questions regarding this policy, members of the campus community and the community at large are encouraged to visit the CSUSB smoke and tobacco free policy website at www.csusb.edu/smoke-free.

Yes! According to the CDC, smoking bans and restrictions lead to a reduction in the amount of daily smoking among students and employees and an increase in the number of individuals who stop smoking. Smoke/tobacco-free campuses and workplaces reduce the risk of developing heart disease and lung cancer due to secondhand smoke exposure.

CSUSB encourages all individuals to be mindful of their personal safety while on or off campus. Medications such as the nicotine patch, gum, lozenge, nasal spray or inhaler are options that can be considered to meet nicotine needs without leaving campus. Consult your healthcare provider to discuss medication options.

No. The policy prohibits smoking and using tobacco products on all CSU properties, but individuals are not required to quit. While quitting is not required, one goal of the systemwide smoke and tobacco free policy is to increase knowledge and utilization of available cessation resources in order to improve the health and well-being of our community. Environmental policy is a key public health intervention to promote behavior change over time by redirecting available resources, shifting cultural and social norms, and increasing public awareness of wellness issues.

Research shows that most tobacco users are interested in quitting but do not know of existing resources to help them to quit. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the majority of tobacco users tried to quit at least once in the past year and nearly 7 out of 10 (68.0%) adult smokers in the US report that they want to quit completely. Every attempt to quit increases a smokers’ likelihood of successfully stopping smoking, and most smokers attempt to quit at least 7 times before they are successful.

Faculty, staff, and students who see individuals smoking on University properties may (but are not required to) respectfully inform these individuals of the University policy prohibiting smoking/tobacco use anywhere on University properties. However, threatening and/or violent interpersonal conduct regarding compliance with the terms of this executive order will not be tolerated and may result in discipline pursuant to system-wide or campus policies.

Compliance is grounded in an informed and educated campus community. The success of this policy depends on the thoughtfulness, civility and cooperation of all members of the campus community, including visitors.

Members of the CSU community are individually responsible to comply with the creation of a systemwide smoke and tobacco free environment.

Educational campaigns, outreach, communication and the promotion of tobacco cessation treatment options will be the primary means to promote compliance. A comprehensive education and outreach campaign, including resources and referrals for cessation will be made available as part of campus implementation programs.

We hope civility and respect for others will guide all of us during the transitioning toward a smoke/tobacco-free campus. We realize this policy may be challenging for some smokers and tobacco users but we hope that smokers and tobacco users will respect the rights of their fellow members of the CSUSB community to breathe smoke-free air. We also hope non-smokers who remind violators of the smoke/tobacco-free policy will do so with courtesy and civility.

The communications plan will include but is not limited to:

•Notification of policy to current and prospective students and employees through communication available on University websites;

•Notification during the admission and enrollment process and/or during new hire orientation for faculty and staff;

•Informational meetings, postings, and electronic notifications

•Campus signage

•Various print and digital media

•Social media platforms

•Communications to outside groups using CSUSB facilities

•Contracts/Agreements

•Media exposure on and off campus

Signage indicating that CSUSB is a smoke/tobacco-free campus will be posted in all high traffic building entrances/exits, parking lots, and at key points across campus.

Effective September 1, 2017, all California State University campuses shall be 100 percent Smoke Free and Tobacco Free. The use of designated smoking areas are prohibited.

The University does not own the sidewalks and streets that border its campus (sidewalks and streets inside campus are University property). We ask that Cal State San Bernardino faculty, staff, alumni, students, and visitors be courteous when going off campus to smoke or use tobacco products by disposing of tobacco products and packaging in appropriate receptacles and being aware of others nearby who may not wish to be exposed to secondhand smoke.

No, a vehicle parked on a CSUSB parking lot/structure or on a street within the borders of the CSUSB campus is still within the boundaries of the smoke-free zone, and must be moved off-campus if you want to smoke within the vehicle.

Neither smoking nor the use of tobacco products are permitted within the boundaries of University properties. Once outside the boundaries of University properties, smoking and use of tobacco products is subject to local jurisdiction.

Exposure to secondhand smoke is known to cause death and disease and is the third leading cause of preventable death in this country, killing more than 40,000 nonsmokers each year. The Surgeon General of the United States has concluded that there is no risk free level of exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke and any exposure to tobacco smoke – even an occasional cigarette or exposure to secondhand smoke – is harmful. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has found secondhand tobacco smoke to be a risk to public health, and has classified secondhand smoke as a group A carcinogen, the most dangerous class of carcinogen. Furthermore, the California Air Resources Board has categorized secondhand smoke as a toxic air contaminant.

Hookah pipes (also known as water pipes, shisha) have a reputation for being the lesser of evils when it comes to smoking options, and from certain perspectives, this is true. Smoking a hookah doesn't have to mean smoking tobacco or taking in nicotine, which are common substances associated with smoking. But hookah smoking does have its own dangers — combusted charcoal — which carries health risks even when non-tobacco shisha is used.

When charcoal is burned to create the hookah effect, it releases chemicals in the process, namely carbon monoxide (CO) and polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). In addition to inhaling byproducts of the shisha, waterpipe smokers also inhale fairly large quantities of these combustionrelated toxins — a hidden health risk associated with hookah smoking, even for non-tobacco shisha.

•Smokeless tobacco spit is considered a biohazard and contains at least 24 carcinogenic chemicals.

•Spit tobacco often creates unwanted hazardous waste and byproducts, which then requires disposal by campus maintenance staff members.

•A dip of smokeless tobacco typically contains 3-5 times more nicotine than a cigarette. Research shows that smokers have difficulty switching from cigarettes to smokeless tobacco. Instead, many become dual users of both cigarettes and smokeless products – increasing the addiction.

•Smokeless tobacco use is a precursor to cigarette use. Specifically, adolescents who use smokeless tobacco are more likely to become cigarette smokers according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

•Environmental concerns. Smokeless tobacco still uses the same tobacco manufacturing methods that cause deforestation, soil erosion, and poverty.

E-cigarettes have become increasingly popular, though much about the risks associated with them is unknown. Even though some users state that these devices have helped them reduce or quit smoking traditional cigarettes and helped to reduce their nicotine addiction, there is currently little evidence that e-cigarettes or vaporizers can help you quit smoking.

Neither e-cigarettes nor vaporizers are FDA approved "quit smoking" aids. If the manufacturers wanted to make this claim, they would have to adhere to specific FDA standards and clinical trials. They have yet to apply for such status. Aside from being addictive, nicotine itself is toxic to humans. The nicotine vapor in e-cigarettes and vaporizers may send a more concentrated dose of nicotine into user’s body. Choosing a lower “juice” or fluid isn't necessarily a reliable way to decrease nicotine intake as these substances are not standardized or guaranteed to contain the chemicals they advertise. FDA tests have found that similarly labeled e-cigarette cartridges released widely varying levels of nicotine per puff and that even cartridges labeled as nicotine free still contained nicotine. Another concern is that e-cigarettes and vaporizers contain toxic contaminants in the fluid and/or vapor. The short term and long term consequences of inhaling these chemicals has yet to be determined.

However, all forms of FDA approved nicotine replacement therapy such as gum, nicotine inhalers, lozenges and patches are allowed.

Tobacco products include all of the following:

◾A product containing, made or derived from tobacco or nicotine that is intended for human consumption, whether smoked, heated, chewed, absorbed, dissolved, inhaled, snorted, sniffed, or ingested by any other means, including, but not limited to cigarettes, cigars, little cigars, chewing tobacco, pipe tobacco, and snuff.

◾An electronic device that delivers nicotine or other vaporized liquids to the person inhaling from the device, including, but not limited to, an electronic cigarette, cigar, pipe, or hookah.

◾Any component, part, accessory of a tobacco product, whether or not sold separately.

“Tobacco product” does not include a product that has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for sale as a tobacco cessation product or for other therapeutic purposes where the product is market and sold solely for such an approved purpose.

MailMan is designed around the idea that most lists are used for discussions between members. By default MailMan accepts mail from members and holds mail from anyone else pending approval from the owner/moderator of the list. You can change this default behavior for lists you own by doing the following.

1. Go to the management interface for your list at

   lists.csusb.edu/mailman/admin/<list name>

   where <list-name> is the name of the list. For example, to manage my-list go to lists.csusb.eduailman/admin/my-list.

2. Go to Privacy options... -> Sender filters.

3. Scroll down to generic_nonmember_action and select one of the following:

• Accept - Accepts all messages from anywhere (not recommended).
• Hold - Ask for approval from an owner/moderator (default).
• Reject - Send a message to the original sender and discard the message. This option disables owner/moderator approval.
• Discard - Discard the message without sending a message to the original sender. This option also disables owner/moderator approval.

4. Click the Submit Your Changes button when you are done.

Please note that accept_these_nonmembers, hold_these_nonmembers, reject_these_nonmembers, and discard_these_nonmembers options are checked before the generic action is taken.

A list that has other lists as recipients is know as an umbrella list and can be extremely tricky to set up. If you must set up this type of list read through the following instructions carefully.

In the admin page for your sub-lists set the following options.

• Under "Privacy options..." -> "Recipient filters" set acceptable_aliases to <umbrella>, where <umbrella> is the name of the umbrella list.
• Under "Privacy options..." -> "Sender filters" set accept_these_nonmembers to <umbrella>-bounces@lists.csusb.edu, where <umbrella> is the name of the umbrella list.

In the admin page for your umbrella list set the following options.

• Under "Privacy options..." -> "Sender filters" set accept_these_nonmembers to @<sub> for every sub-list, where <sub> is the name of the sub-list.

• Under "Membership management..." -> "Mass Subscription" add the email address of each sub-list.

If you are no longer using your list please call the Technology Support Center at 909-537-7677 and ask to have your list deleted.

Answer: Yes, some scholarships are not based on need. A student with at least a 3.0 GPA should apply. Also, there are two federal non-need based loans:

• Federal Unsubsidized Direct Loan
• Federal Parent Loans for Undergraduate Students

These loan programs require the submission of the Free Application For Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and a separate loan application and/or promissory notes. In addition, all first time CSUSB students who borrow MUST complete an on-line Entrance Loan Counseling session. A reminder: first time, first year Freshmen borrowers will not receive their Unsubsidized Direct loan checks until 30 days after the start of their first term.

Answer: Eligibility for the Federal direct Subsidized Loan is based on need and is computed in the same way as eligibility for other need-based aid. The Free Application For Federal Aid (FAFSA) must be completed. Documents requested by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships must be submitted by the student and a Master Promissory Note must be completed. It is important to start this process early. 

First time borrowers at CSUSB must complete an on-line Entrance Loan Counseling Session. First-time, first-year Freshmen borrowers will not receive their loan checks until 30 days after the start of their first term. All borrowers must attend an Exit Counseling Session upon exiting CSUSB.

Yes. Each year you must file the Free Application For Federal Aid (FAFSA) for the appropriate academic year and submit any documents that are requested. You must also meet the satisfactory academic progress requirements in order to qualify for aid each year.

Students who apply by the March 2 date and submit all requested documents and information by April 15 are more likely to receive funds by the time school starts in the fall. Applications filed after the March 2 date may not have funds ready for disbursement by the fall instruction start date.

Students who apply by the priority date are also more likely to receive all funds for which they are eligible. After the priority dates, funding in many programs may be exhausted. Applying early is always to the student's advantage.

Approximately ten days prior to the first day of each quarter. This is the earliest timeframe allowable per federal regulations. Aid disbursement methods are via Direct Deposit or mailed check. Note: Financial aid direct deposits/checks are issued to students for grants/loans with an excess credit reflected on their account balance.

The amount and type of aid offered to you is determined by your eligibility as a result of your FAFSA information and review of your file by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships. If your aid is not enough to cover both your registration fees and campus housing costs, then you are responsible for payment of the balance. Contact Campus Housing and Student Accounts for payment of balance.

Grants/Scholarships are automatically credited towards your registration fees and applicable housing bill. Federal Loans ARE NOT automatically credited towards your registration fees and applicable housing bill. You must accept your loans on-line through myCoyote. After loans are accepted through myCoyote, they are credited towards your registration and applicable housing bill. If your grants and/or loans are less than your registration fees and applicable housing bill, you are responsible for payment of the balance. Failure to pay balance, may result in your classes being administratively dropped.

No. Nearly all financial aid notifications are sent to new admit and continuing students via their CSUSB email address.

You will be notified about your financial aid (file status, document requested, award notification, award revisions, etc.) by email at your CSUSB email address that was assigned to you by the IRT Support Center. Please check your CSUSB email address regularly for official university updates.

Yes. Students classified as nonresidents may appeal to the Chancellor’s Office within 30 calendar days of the issuance of the notification of the final campus decision. The campus decision may be appealed only if at least one of the following applies:

1. The decision was based on:
   1. a significant error of fact;
   2. a significant procedural error; or
   3. an incorrect application of law which, if corrected, would require that the student be reclassified as a resident; and/or
2. Significant new information, not previously known or available to the student, became available after the date of the campus decision classifying the student as a nonresident and based on the new information, the classification as a nonresident is incorrect.

Students must explain why the appeal meets one or more of the above appeal criteria and provide supporting documentation. For example, a “significant error of fact” could be demonstrated by stating that the campus incorrectly determined that a specific document, such as a driver’s license, was untimely and by providing a copy of the document establishing the error. An appeal that only states “a significant error of fact,” will be denied.

Appeals should be submitted online.

CSUSB, like all CSU campuses, determines initial residency for tuition based on the answers you provide in the admissions application.  If the residency questions asked through Cal State Apply do not provide enough information to make a residency determination you will be contacted via your Coyote email by a Residency Specialist.  In that communication, the Residency Specialist will ask for additional documentation to support your claim of California residency and will make a determination of residency status.

A past due account hold is placed when a student has a financial obligation to the University that is considered delinquent.  A student will not be able to make any enrollment changes until this hold has been released. 

To release the hold, View Your Student Account and Make a Payment Online.  Please allow 30 minutes for your registration hold to be released from your account after making a payment online.  If your hold is not released in 30 minutes or if you have additional questions regarding your past due balance, please email sfs@csusb.edu or call 909.537.5162 to assist you further.

For help to determine how much you owe, view the How-To Guide: View Your Student Account.

To appeal charges you will need to submit an Appeal Application for Reversal of Tuition.  Please note; you must be withdrawn from the term and/or course for which you are appealing.  For more information on refund policies please visit the following; refund policies.

CSUSB recommends that you make all domestic and international payments online.  It's convenient, secure, and can be done 24/7.  Also, if you are using Electronic Check (eCheck) there aren't any convenience fees! 

Please visit Payment Methods to view all other payment methods available.

View your student account to see your specific due dates for Tuition and Fees.   Dues dates for all terms are also found on our website: tuition due dates.  

Important: If you are a financial aid recipient you are only responsible for the portion that is not covered (if any amount remains) by your assigned due date.

After the open enrollment has closed, students who are not enrolled in the current term or were dropped due to non-payment will have a prepayment hold placed on their account.  In order to release the hold, make a prepayment online.  Please allow up-to 30 minutes for your hold to be released after making a prepayment.

You are required to pay all of your tuition and fees in advance prior to enrolling.  Prepayment holds only pertain to the term for which it states and will not prevent enrollment for any other term.  

If you choose not to pay online, please view the payment methods currently available.  

How To Enroll In Direct Deposit

How it Works

When financial aid disburses to a student, in most cases, it posts like any other "payment" to their CSUSB student account.  Most financial aid pays all fees due including tuition, campus fees, housing, meals and other qualifying charges. When a student is enrolled in Direct Deposit, any remaining credit is then sent as a direct deposit directly into a student's bank account.  In most cases, deposited funds are posted to a student's bank account within three business days. 

If for any reason a student's bank account changes or is closed, the student is responsible for canceling or updating the direct deposit information on file. Failure to do so may cause a delay in processing the refund.

Students who have overpaid or dropped courses and need to request a refund may also use this direct deposit feature. Simply enroll in direct deposit prior to submitting a Refund Request Form.

Important Note

At the beginning of each term, or when you anticipate receiving a refund, please verify that your bank account information is correct. If you find the information is incorrect or outdated, please make any necessary changes.  All changes are effective immediately for future refunds.  Direct Deposit is not available to parents receiving refunds for Federal PLUS Loans and will be issued by check.

Direct Deposit Requirements

1. The student must have access to their Student Center on myCoyote.
2. The student must have an open and valid checking/savings account.

Yes, there is a fee of $35 per an exam.

The Institute for Research, Assessment & Professional Development provides opportunities across the three domains of the institute (i.e., research, assessment, professional development) to enhance collaborations between program areas, faculty, graduate students and partnering activities with community agencies, such as the Department of Rehabilitation, Veterans Affairs, School Districts, Department of Corrections, and related community agencies. Services include (1) Comprehensive Vocational Evaluations and Situational Assessments for individuals receiving services from the Department of Rehabilitation and (2) Neurofeedback interventions for the treatment of ADD/ADHD, anxiety, autism/Asperger's syndrome (mild-moderate), academic/performance enhancement, cognitive decline, conduct disorder, depression, stroke, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other conditions. Neurofeedback, also known as cognitive rehabilitation or EEG biofeedback, is a ground-breaking technique that challenges the brain to better function. This powerful brain-based technique has been successfully helping clients around the world for more than 30 years. It is a noninvasive process with dramatic results for a multitude of symptoms. The effectiveness of neurofeedback for adults and children with a wide variety of symptoms has been repeatedly concluded in numerous research studies. Neurofeedback works by training the brain to function at its maximum potential, which is similar to the way the body is exercised, toned and maintained. The technology is safe and effective for children and adults ages 5 to 95.Director: Connie McReynolds cmcreyno@csusb.edu 909-537-5453 / 909-537-5681Visit the Institute for Research, Assessment & Professional Development Website

Starting early in 2017, certain employees may receive one or more forms providing information about the health care coverage that they had or were offered during 2016. Much like Form W-2 and Form 1099, which include information about the income you received, these new health care forms provide information that you may need when you file your individual income tax return. Also like Forms W-2 and 1099, these new forms will be provided to the IRS by the entity that provides the form to you.

The forms are:

• Form 1095-B, Health Coverage. Health insurance providers (for example, health insurance companies) send this form to individuals they cover, with information about who was covered and when.
• Form 1095-C, Employer-Provided Health Insurance Offer and Coverage. State Controllers Office (SCO) will send this form to certain employees, with information about what coverage the employer offered. This is for information purposes only and the employee should keep it with their tax return information.

You will receive your award when you and the Registrar have fully completed the Certificate of Registration, and it has been received by the Society Headquarters.
