Additional Information
The CSU Marine Biology Semester is an upper division program that is designed for students who have completed their lower division coursework in Biology. For Fall 2025, after screening by the CSULB faculty, registration will be through California State University Long Beach (CSULB). CSULB students will register directly through that campus. Other CSU students will need to fill out the Intrasystem Visitor Enrollment Form, which will enable registration through CSULB. Units may then be transferred to the appropriate campus.
