What to Expect After Submitting Your Application
Once you have sent in your completed application, it will be processed as follows:

• You will receive an email from the Tseng College of Extended Learning’s Admission and Technology staff indicating the successful receipt of your online application.
• You will receive another email from the (on-campus) University Admission and Records (A&R) department indicating their receipt of your online application, as well.
  • A&R will be responsible for:
    • reviewing your official transcripts;
    • building your CSUN student record;
    • forwarding your application to the DL IDAD department for review;
    • officially admitting you to the University;
    • setting up access for you to our CSUN Web Portal;
    • and emailing you information about how to get on to the CSUN Web Portal using the provided Student ID number and password.
• The DL IDAD department will review your application.
• You will then receive an email from the DL IDAD department indicating your admission status to the program.
  • If you are admitted to the program, the email will inform you that you should expect a hardcopy of a letter with your admission confirmation and program information in the mail.
  • If you are denied admission, the email will indicate why you were not admitted.
• Please note that applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis; once the available openings for the program are taken, you will be placed on a wait list and informed of your spot on the wait list.
• Immediately after you are admitted to the program an email of official admission will be sent to you from University A&R.
• You will also be sent a program packet from the department via email that contains information about:
  • how to get into the virtual online classroom by accessing our course management system, Blackboard;
  • how to access your courses;
  • how to access the CSUN Web Portal;
  • who to contact for assistance with academic and technical issues;
  • program and tuition schedule;
  • the required book list;
  • tuition payment options;
  • and Financial Aid information.
• Please note that EMAIL is the official mode of communication from the University and the DL IDAD department. You should therefore keep your email account active and your email contact information up-to-date on both the Web Portal and with the DL IDAD program manager.
