Full Description

At Chico State, today decides tomorrow.

Since 1887, Chico State has helped students build meaningful futures through purpose-driven learning, personal connection, and real-world experience. The regional comprehensive university enrolls more than 14,800 students from across California and is a Hispanic-Serving Institution where nearly half of students are the first in their family to pursue a four-year degree. A U.S. News & World Report “Top Public School in the West” for more than two decades, Chico State offers more than 300 programs of study with areas of strength including agriculture and the environment, healthcare, education, engineering, and more.

Located in a beautiful and globally connected region of Northern California, the University’s distinctive learning environments—including its 800-acre University Farm and the largest ecological reserve in the California State University system—reflect its commitment to sustainability, innovation, and hands-on education. Part of the country's largest public university system, Chico State is nationally recognized for its high-value degrees, empowering social mobility, and preparing students to lead in a changing world.
