91³Ô¹Ï is committed to creating a supportive and inclusive environment for all students. We understand how challenging it can be to be a parent and a student at the same time. CSUCI supports your academic achievement amidst the unique challenges and additional responsibilities you face as a parenting student. We have various support services designed to you succeed not only inside the classroom, but outside of the classroom, as your children will experience CSUCI for the first time themselves. Below you will find several resources that may be helpful to you as you balance both these roles.
