CAMPUS TOURS

Take a Campus Tour

California State University, Northridge offers guided walking tours of campus. On a campus tour, you'll visit our major points of interest and learn about life as a Cal State Northridge student. Tours take approximately one hour and are led by University Ambassadors.
