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 activi-ties
in high schools and community
colleges in the Central Valley, which
extends from Sacramento to Bakers-field.
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 understand-ing
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 aca-demic
majors in small or large group
settings.

Transfer Services
Outreach staff members visit com-munity
colleges in the university’s
service area regularly and see most
students by appointment. Students
are assisted with admissions, financial
aid, and advising information. 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 Out-reach
Services also participates in the
Fresno City College Transfer Center
Project. The Transfer Center Project
sponsors several activities to promote
and increase the number of transfer
students.
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 baccalaureate degree.
Two community colleges and 35 high
schools are in the program.
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 classroom
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.
Tours
Student tour guides conduct cam-pus
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, ar-range
departmental meetings for pro-spective
students and their parents,
and engage in specific recruitment
activities.
UOS makes
information
available through
its many site
visits, classroom
presentations,
college fair booths,
and campus tours.
