2004-2005 California State University, Fresno General Catalog 43
The University Outreach Office
The Office of University Outreach
Services (UOS) coordinates many of
the university’s ongoing outreach
programs and recruitment.
As a regional university, Fresno State
concentrates its major outreach
activities in high schools and
community colleges in the Central
Valley, which extends from Sacra-mento
to Bakersfield.
The primary focus of UOS is to assist
students with preadmission proce-dures
necessary to attend Fresno
State and to develop and maintain a
viable relationship with all segments
of the community for a better
understanding of the university and
its services. Another important
outreach service is to improve access
for students from educationally and/
or economically disadvantaged
families.
High School Outreach
University Outreach visits high
schools during the fall semester with
follow-up visits in the spring.
Outreach representatives provide
information on admissions, financial
aid, scholarships, housing, and
academic majors in small or large
group settings.
Community Colleges/
Transfer Services
Outreach staff members visit
community colleges in the
university’s service area regularly and
see most students by appointment.
Students are assisted with admissions,
financial aid, and advising informa-tion.
Staff members also provide
information on campus support
programs. They visit most colleges in
the Valley and Central Coast areas
on a regular basis. Consult with your
transfer center or counseling center.
University Outreach Services also
participates in the Fresno City
College Transfer Center Project. The
Transfer Center Project sponsors

Student Ambassadors
University college ambassadors
motivate high school and community
college students to enroll in college
preparatory courses that will lead to
CSU admission. Ambassadors
provide community college students
with valuable information on the
benefits of higher education.
Ambassadors distribute materials to
help students prepare for a baccalau-reate
degree. Two community
colleges and 23 high schools are in
the program.
Admission Day
Admission Day is designed for
prospective students and their
parents to learn more about attend-ing
Fresno State. The event features
academic programs, information
workshops, and tours of the campus
facilities. The highlight of the event
is an on-the-spot admission program
for eligible students.
Preview Day
Preview Day offers a unique oppor-tunity
for entering first-time fresh-men
and transfer students to visit the
campus and participate in a class-room
setting that is similar to what
they will experience as students at
Fresno State. Preview Day is designed
to give students a closer look at our
campus and a chance to interact with
faculty.
Step to College
The Step to College Program helps
high school juniors and seniors get a
head start on their college education.
Students can explore subjects not
offered at their high school and earn
university credit.
Tours
Student tour guides conduct campus
tours for prospective students and
their families. Group tours may also
be accommodated with advance
notice. Contact the office for the
scheduled hours.
School-Based
Recruitment Program
Members of University Outreach
serve as liaisons with the eight
academic colleges/schools. Outreach
members disseminate information
specific to the colleges/schools,
arrange departmental meetings for
prospective students and their
parents, and engage in specific
recruitment activities. ❖
UOS makes
information
available through
its many site visits,
classroom

college fair booths,
and campus tours.
