Along the eastern part of Los Angeles, you will see the California State University, Los Angeles in all its glory. It sits on top of a hill right in front of the San Gabriel Mountains and just a few miles away from Downtown L.A. With its very unique location, this university does not exactly give you the whole "college vibe" that you normally see in the movies. This is definitely not a minus on the part of the university for a few particular reasons.

First, it really is essentially a living gallery. All the structures and buildings can certainly verify that. CSULA has a humanities shelter, a space research center by NASA as well as the nation's very first Charter College of Education. While you walk around campus, you can expect to at once feel the story that it is just starting to make. Not just that, there are also a few specialty high schools that you can find there- the Marc and Eva Stern Math and Science School and the Los Angeles Country High School for the Arts. Whenever you get a peek of how they work inside their classroom, you'll bet that they're going to turn out to be well-known at some point.

Second, this is a commuter school so most of the students don't actually stay in campus during the weekends (well, except when you have a class on Saturday). Since only a few choose to board in the university, you have a slew of commuting options to choose from. If you have the luxury of having a car, you can park in one of their underground parking areas, which they actually pioneered to lessen the congestion of cars on the campus grounds. In my honest opinion, I actually like it better to use the rail station for getting in and out of the campus. You can also take the bus or the neighborhood shuttle service, whichever one's more convenient to you.

Third, the notion that attending college is going to tie you down in IOUs for decades ahead are practically outlawed in CSULA. It is definitely one of the most inexpensive educational institutions within the state and not only that, your school guide will in fact require you to finish a number of educational assitance applications from all sorts of funding source you can actually ever imagine. What's more, you can even work inside the campus so those lengthy gaps between classes will not include extreme boredom.

The one thing that holds the 'college vibe' is the academic programs. U.S. News rated their business program as the top in the U.S. Also, the School of Nursing is highly recommended that uses the most impressive teaching approach to students. However, don't become upset should you not intend to take them as one of your specialties, simply because all of those other courses have the advantage of utilizing some of the most technologically innovative faciliates in the state.
