CSU Resources
The California State University (CSU) is committed to ensuring academic opportunities are accessible
to all California students, regardless of citizenship status. The CSU is dedicated to providing every student with the resources and support needed to succeed and thrive.
The CSU's Policy
- CSU enrollment and tuition policies are not based on immigration status and should
not be impacted by anticipated Executive Orders.
- State funding available under the California Dream Act is based on residency rules,
not immigration status.
- The CSU will not release immigration status or related information in confidential
student records to federal agencies or other parties without a judicial warrant, a
subpoena, a court order, or as otherwise required by law.
- CSU is committed to assuring an environment where all members of our university community
are not hesitant or afraid to come forward or interact with our University Police
Departments (UPD) for fear of intervention by ICE.
- The primary jurisdiction for enforcement of federal immigration laws concerning unlawful
entry into the United States rests with ICE.
- There is no connection between the policy and immigration enforcement actions taken by federal or other agencies external
to the CSU.
