Current Liberal Studies and Credential Students
We care about the health and safety of our students and will be using social distancing in the Center for Advising and Student Services. We are following evolving guidance from the CSU Chancellor’s Office, as well as state and local public health agencies and this decision has come out of an abundance of caution.
To schedule an appointment with an advisor you may do this online through Bulldog Connect or email kremenschool@csufresno.edu.

Academic Probation and Disqualification
Degree Progress Report (DPR)
The Degree Progress Report (DPR) is used as an advising tool. It is a system-generated report that shows a student's progress toward completing major requirements, General Education, and remaining degree requirements. Students and advisors have access to run DPR’s. If you need assistance in running or interpreting your DPR, please schedule an appointment with an advisor or find out when walk-in hours are by calling 559.278.0300 or log in to your student portal at my.fresnostate.edu and click on “Grades First”.
Returning Students
Former Fresno State students who seek readmission after an absence of two semesters or more must file an application for admission through Cal State Apply. Schedule an appointment with an advisor.
Students absent one semester only are exempt from the $55 application fee and will be able to register for the following semester.
Students absent on an approved planned educational leave are not required to file an application for admission and are exempt from the application fee. (See Planned Educational Leave.)
