• If a student enters an agreement with another CSU, can they change the agreement at a later date?

  • A student can request to be removed from an agreement. If they wish to change to another campus or program, they must submit a request for release and allow time for the campus to review. The filing period for a student to submit an agreement is from August 1 - September 30. If a student requests to be released from their original agreement, they can elect to enter into an agreement with another campus or program provided it is within the filing period for an agreement.
