Most students are well rounded. I loved my school and most students at CSU Channel Islands do!!! Many are involved in leadership activities and different clubs at school. There is a good mix of ethnic groups and there are clubs regarding ethnic groups that anyone can be a part of. Most people get along and for the must part there is harmony. You are encouraged to grow abs be you, the best you you can be!

There's computer labs, dorms with game, computer, art, dance, and music rooms; there are different places to eat from a buffet style cafe to Mexican food to Indian food there are some options. The classes are small and most of my classes were no more than 35 students per class. The school puts on some events and so does housing. There are cultural, educational, and social events, as well as leadership opportunities and volunteer opportunities. There is a gym on campus that is included in admission costs
