The campus is part of California State University, San Bernardino and was established to serve the students of the Coachella Valley. We are pleased to tell you we have just completed our 26th year in the Coachella Valley! The Cook Street campus is our permanent campus site, which opened in 2002. Attending PDC gives you the advantages of a small campus and all of the opportunities of a large university. On the Palm Desert Campus you will find you’ll be in smaller classes and be able to get to know your instructors and fellow students. At the same time, you will have access to all of the resources of a large university. You should know that all the buildings on this campus were constructed without state funds. They were built with funds donated by Coachella Valley residents, foundations and desert cities. To date, donations to build our campus total nearly $35 million – money the Valley has invested in you! These same Coachella Valley residents, foundations and Desert cities have set up scholarships that are restricted to students on this campus. The bottom line is this - this community supports our campus and supports you. We’ve come a long way from a few classes offered in classrooms at College of the Desert, our original campus. The Palm Desert Campus now has a spectacular 300-seat theater, state-of-the-art nursing labs, state-of-the-art technology in classrooms, a student health center and a new student services area. What we most need now is your participation in the life of this campus, and I encourage you to take advantage of the opportunities that are available to you through the campus. Get involved in student government, join a club, attend a play, represent the campus at an event in the community or volunteer to help our Coachella Valley Health Collaborative and/or our Palm Springs Institute for Environmental Sustainability--organizations that are improving our health in the Valley. In addition, let us know about your community service! We’re not only proud of the physical campus, we also take pride in the supportive climate the campus encourages. Join study groups in your classes; if someone can’t find a classroom, offer to show them; even greet people on campus with a smile. We are all happy and excited that you are here! We all are here to help you succeed in earning your degree – so, connect with us and let us know what and how you are doing! Best wishes for a great academic experience, Dr. Sharon Brown-Welty, Dean CSUSB Palm Desert Campus WELCOME TO CSUSB Associated Students Incorporated TABLE OF CONTENTS CSUSB Palm Desert Campus Office Hours 1 Directory 2 2015/2016 Academic Calendar 3 Undergraduate Advising Contacts 2015/2016 5 Graduate Program Advising Contacts 2015/2016 6 Frequently Asked Questions7 Getting Through The First Week-Checklist8 Financial Aid9 Types Of Aid10 Scholarships11 Student Health and Psychological Counseling Center 13 Career Center 14 Internships15 Library Services16 Parking Regulations17 History-Social Science Resource Room 19 Coyote Bookstore20 Services To Students With Disabilities (SSD) and Workability Iv (Wa-Iv)21 Rancho Mirage Student Center22 Information Technology Services23 Campus Wireless Network Access24 Connecting Campus Wi-Fi (Eduroam) To A Device 25 Social Media And Web Links28 Student E-Mail, Mycoyote and Bulletin Of Courses 29 Clubs and Organizations30 Places To Eat Around Campus31 CSUSB PALM DESERT CAMPUS OFFICE HOURS FALL, WINTER, SPRING Mary Stuart Rogers Gateway Building (RG) Palm Desert Health Sciences Building (HS) Administrative Offices & College of Education (COE) RG 203 Admin: 760-341-2883 x 78115 or 78114 COE: 760-341-2883 x 78145 Monday-Thursday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Closed Saturday and Sunday) Nursing Administrative Office HS 120 PDC: 760-341-2833 x78127 SB: 760-341-2883 x 75380 Monday – Friday 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. Hixon Information Resource Center HS 103 760-341-2883 x 78112 Monday – Thursday 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. Friday – 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. Saturday – 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. Coyote Bookstore RG 115 760-341-2883 x 78123 Monday – Thursday 10 a.m. – 7 p.m. Friday 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Saturday 8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. Sunday Closed R.D.

Prepare Familiarize yourself with the types of aid available, how much aid you’ll need, and whether you’re eligible. 2. Apply With the exception of some scholarships, everyone must use the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to apply for aid. When you’re ready to apply, fill out the on-line www.fafsa.ed.gov. Make sure you get your application in by March 2nd of every year. 3. Receive The Department of Education will inform you and CSUSB about your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). Then, CSUSB will tell you how much and what types of aid you qualify for. Check your CSUSB email often - this is the mode by which we communicate with you. 4. Repay If your aid is in the form of loans, become familiar with the repayment process. Loans are legal obligations, so before you take out a student loan, think about the amount you’ll have to repay over the years. Financial aid programs provide support for students to help meet the costs of obtaining a college education. Funding for such programs is provided by the federal and state governments, the individual colleges and universities, and a variety of other public and private sources. Financial aid is split up into two categories based on the reason the money is awarded: Achievement-based aid is awarded to students who have a special characteristic, skill, talent, or ability. Typically achievement-based aid is in the form of scholarships. Need-based aid is provided to students who demonstrate financial need. Most financial aid, particularly publicfunded aid, is awarded on the basis of financial need determined through the application process and in accordance with a prescribed federal formula. How to contact Financial Aid at CSUSB Palm Desert Campus A financial aid consultant is available to assist students at the Palm Desert Campus every Thursday in the RG Administration Office. To set an appointment, please call (760) 341-2883 during PDC business hours. To leave a message for financial aid please call (760) 341-2883 x78122 or email Dr. John Anderson at andersonj@ csusb.edu. 9 TYPES OF AID 4 BASIC TYPES OF FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS AVAILABLE · GRANTS: Federal or state gift assistance with no obligation for work or repayment · LOANS: Providing funds now, but with a future repayment obligation · SCHOLARSHIPS Gift assistance with no obligation for work or repayment · WORK-STUDY Part-time work while attending the institution Most often, financial aid will come to you in the form of a package consisting of a combination of the different types of aid available. The combination of aid offered depends on the availability of funds, your eligibility, the timeliness with which the application process is completed, and your year in school. There are many different types of aid available within each of the main categories of grants, loans, and scholarships. It’s worth it to review each type to find which one might suit you and your circumstances. Not all aid types will apply to everyone, but nearly everyone can find aid that works for them. Grants Currently, grants fall under four general categories. The first, and largest number of grants are for Undergraduate Students. 2nd Bachelor Students, Credential Students, and Graduate Students make up the three remaining categories. Certificate students are only eligible for loans. Check out our Grants section for a list of which grants are offered under each category. Loans A loan is a form of financial aid which must be repaid. The terms for repayment are specified in the promissory note that the recipient signs prior to receipt of the first loan disbursement. Before signing the promissory note, students should thoroughly understand all their rights and responsibilities concerning any loan received. There are many different types of loans that you should familiarize yourself with before deciding which type it right for you. Check out our Loans section for more information. Scholarships The CSUSB Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships accepts scholarship applications for the upcoming academic year beginning in January.
