Why is Cal State Fullerton

interesting?
This college is interesting to me because it
offers education in multiples subjects that I
would like to pursue. For example Cal State
Fullerton also offers classes and majors in
psychology, linguistics, and criminal justice.

What I Learned!
I have learned how many different classes I can
take to obtain a degree in political science. It it
interesting to me as to how all of the classes
associate with each other and contribute to the
major. I was surprised that non local applicants
must have higher test scores in order to be
admitted. Whereas local undergraduates would
have less competition to be accepted.
