CSU Fully Online is a cross-enrollment program that allows matriculated CSU students to concurrently take one online course at another CSU campus at no additional tuition cost. Students must meet eligibility criteria to participate. 

You are eligible if: 

1. You’ve completed at least one term at a CSU campus as a matriculated student in a state-supported program and earned at least 12 units at that campus. 
2. Your GPA is at least 2.0 at your campus and you are in good standing. 
3. You are or will be enrolled at your campus during the time you’re taking a fully online class through another CSU campus. 

Students enrolled through CSU Fully Online do not need to submit transcripts to their HOME campus at the end of a semester. 

Grades are submitted to the home campus during the host campus's end of term process (dates vary for each CSU, SFSU can be located on our dates and deadlines). ​This process involves downloading the host campus course grade, then replacing the home campus's place holder course when the home campus runs it's own end of term process.  

If there is any host campus issue contact our office by: 

• Phone: (415) 338-2350 
• Email: registrar@sfsu.edu 

Submitting a request does not guarantee enrollment. If your request is accepted, the host campus will confirm by email and the request will appear with a status of Enrolled. If you successfully enroll in a course, your home campus adds a placeholder course to your record to show the in-progress units. Those units are included in financial aid totals 

1. The registration time of both home and host campus have to be opened for registration at the same time
2. Registration times for a CourseMatch course and CSU Fully Online course are different.
