    You might be thinking this is not a grand school considering its not a UC, but don't let that discourage you. CSUN is one of the top CSU's in the state and is considered the best business related schools on the west coast. If you live close to CSUN then your doubts must be higher because the school is so close. I use to think that way too, but once I read into their programs and met their professors and students, I decided this was my college. Being able to live so close to school and not have to pay a large tuition makes my life a lot easier. It could be the same for you if you gave CSUN a chance. read full review
