Did you know you’re able to take classes at CSU Bakersfield without being a formal student? Our Open University allows prospective students and members of the community to register and attend classes prior to being admitted to the university.
If you’re an academically disqualified student, you too have the chance to take courses and meet the campus readmission requirements.
How To Register:
1. Choose the class on the myCSUB schedule
2. Attend first week of class
3. Complete an Open University Registration Form (main campus add slips will not be accepted)
4. Obtain instructor signature on the Open University Registration Form
5. Submit registration form and payment to the Extended Education office. A late fee of $25 will be assessed for registrations received after the date posted on the Open University academic calendar. Registrations without the approval of the Extended University Dean will not be accepted after designated date on the Open University academic calendar.
6. Refund policies can be found on the Extended Education Refund Policies page
Note: Regularly admitted students are not eligible to register through Open University
