Dear Titan Community,

Over the past several weeks, a number of international students and scholars across the country — and within our own campus community — have been affected by unexpected visa revocations.

We recognize how unsettling and difficult this news may be for those directly impacted, as well as for friends, peers and colleagues who are concerned. Please know that we are actively monitoring the situation and working closely with leaders across the Cal State University system to understand developments and advocate for clarity and support.

My gratitude goes to our deans, faculty and staff who took swift and compassionate action to support our students and communities affected by recent policies. Their leadership ensured that critical services were put in place when they were needed most.

Our Commitment

I want to reaffirm Cal State Fullerton’s commitment to supporting our immigrant and international Titans: you matter. You are an essential part of our community, and our university is dedicated to providing an inclusive educational environment that is enriched by our diversity and global community.

Please be assured that Cal State Fullerton does not share information related to a student’s immigration status or other confidential records unless legally required to do so. Any such request would be thoroughly reviewed in consultation with our Office of General Counsel to ensure full compliance with applicable laws and the highest standards of care.

CSU Resources

As part of our continued support, we want to ensure that all members of our community know where to find support and information:

We also want to remind our entire student body that emotional and mental wellness resources are available through CSUF Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS), should you need someone to talk to during this time.

Stay Informed and Connected

As federal immigration policies continue to evolve, we encourage you to visit the CSU Weekly Updates to follow developments and find information.

Cal State Fullerton’s excellence is rooted in its global and diverse student, faculty and staff — each bringing unique perspectives from around the world. As we navigate this period of uncertainty, let’s continue to stay grounded in our shared values — by staying connected, showing compassion, and standing together as Titans through it all.

Sincerely, 

Ronald S. Rochon signature
