An appointment with an Admissions Counselor can answer questions about your application, admission eligibility or transfer options. We are also prepared to share information with you about Chico State’s affordability, accessibility, student-centered community and experiential learning.

When scheduling an appointment, keep in mind that weekday campus tours are 11 a.m.–12:30 p.m., so if you time your appointment right you can join a campus tour before or after your appointment with a counselor.

"I was looking at several universities but Chico State stayed at the top of my list. It is close to my hometown, gave me that personal attention, and provided me the college experience I was looking for in a quality university."
