About this School
The California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), often referred to as Fullerton State or Cal State Fullerton, is a part of the California State University System. This university is located in Fullerton, California.
 
History
In 1957, Cal State Fullerton became the 12th State College in California to be authorized by the State Legislature as a degree granting institution. The following year a site was designated for the campus to be established in northeast Fullerton, California. The property was purchased in 1959. This is the same year that Dr. William B. Langsdorf was appointed as the founding president of the school. The university was originally named Orange County State College. Classes began with 452 students in September, 1959. The name of the school was changed to Orange State College in July 1962. In 1964 the name of the school was changed for a second time to California State College at Fullerton. In June 1972 the final name change occurred and the school became California State University, Fullerton. Today, the school is growing rapidly. Several new buildings have been completed, and enrollment has climbed to more than 33,413. Since 1963 the curriculum has expanded to include lower-division work and many graduate programs, as well as numerous credential and certificate programs. At the end of the 2006 school year, Cal State Fullerton had the highest enrollment of any of the California State University schools with an enrollment of just over 35,000 students.
