About the Catalog

Policy

Each year, Student Academic Services -- on behalf of the Office of the Chancellor -- coordinates the review and updating of the CSU Mandatory Catalog Copy. California State University's are required to include this copy in all paper and electronic campus catalogs as well as on web pages in which these topics are extensively presented. 

The CSU Mandatory Catalog Copy for academic year 2025-2026 is provided beginning in Section I. The information has been reviewed and approved for publication by Academic and Student Affairs, Budget Office, General Counsel, Human Resources and Public Affairs in the Office of the Chancellor. A mark-up copy is also attached showing the changes from the CSU Mandatory Catalog Copy for academic year 2024-2025 for your reference.

If you have questions about the mandatory catalog copy, please feel free to contact Dr. April Grommo, Assistant Vice Chancellor, Enrollment Management Technology, by telephone at (562) 951-4082 or by email at agrommo@calstate.edu, or Liz Reed, Assistant Director, Enrollment Management Technology, by telephone at (562) 951-4082 or by email at ereed@calstate.edu.
