HSU’s Priority Application Period Begins Today

This is a press release from Humboldt State University:

HumboldtOct. 1 marks the beginning of the priority application period for students who want to attend Humboldt State University in Fall 2018.

Applications are being accepted from first-time freshmen, upper- and lower-division transfer students, returning students, veterans, international students, and graduate students.

First-time freshmen should apply by the end of the California State University system’s priority application period, which ends Nov. 30, 2017. Transfers, returning students, and graduate students should check specific timelines and deadlines at admissions.humboldt.edu. Students can also contact the Office of Admissions at 866-850-9556 or [email protected].

HSU is also hosting Fall Preview on Friday, Oct. 27, 2017. It’s a one-day open house that offers students and families a chance to learn more about Humboldt State and everything it has to offer.
