Discover 2025: See what makes life brighter at SFSU on Oct. 18
Thinking about your next step after high school or community college? Discover SFSU is your chance to picture yourself as a Gator. San Francisco State University’s annual fall open house takes place Saturday, Oct. 18, from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on the main campus.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all event. Discover SFSU is designed as a guided experience tailored to where you are in the admissions journey. You’ll be placed on a track and led by a student tour guide who can answer questions and share what life at SFSU is really like. Along the way, you’ll tour campus and housing, check out an academic and resource showcase, attend an admissions presentation and enjoy lunch in the dining center.
You’ll also meet faculty and current students, explore opportunities like hands-on research, internships and career services and learn about financial aid and scholarships that make SFSU one of the most affordable options in California.
“Choosing a college is a big decision, and we want students to feel both excited and confident about the possibilities ahead,” said Camille Rieck-Armstrong, director of Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment. “Discover SFSU gives them the chance to imagine themselves here — not only in the classroom, but also as part of a community that values their individuality, supports their goals and celebrates their success.”
And because San Francisco is part of the SFSU experience, you’ll get a feel for studying in one of the world’s most dynamic and thriving cities — a place where education and opportunity extend far beyond the classroom. At SFSU, your future really is brighter here.
