How long is the tour, and what does it include?

Our 60-minute walking tour is led by a friendly and knowledgeable Coyote Ambassador who will guide you through key campus landmarks, introduce you to our academic programs, and highlight the student resources that make CSUSB a great place to learn and thrive. It's the perfect way to experience campus and see what being a Coyote is all about!

Our tours provide a great overview of campus life, including key landmarks and student resources. If you’d like to meet with a specific department or faculty, we recommend reaching out to their office directly to schedule an appointment.

Can I bring more than four guests?

To ensure the best experience for all visitors, we ask that each student only bring up to four guests. If you’d like to bring the whole family, we’d love to welcome you at one of our outreach programs and events, where everyone can join in the fun!

What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule my tour?

You can easily reschedule or cancel your tour using the link in your confirmation email or by reaching out to our office. We're happy to help find a new time that works for you!

What are the top things to explore outside of the tour?

There's so much more to experience at CSUSB! After your tour, we invite you to check out the resource centers on the third floor of Santos Manuel Student Union North, browse the Coyote Bookstore, or explore the John M. Pfau Library. If you're feeling hungry, grab a bite to eat at Coyote Commons or one of the other eateries on campus. Enjoy your visit!

What is your late policy?

We ask guests to check in 10 minutes before the tour start time. Tours begin right on time to honor the families who arrive early. 

If you arrive late, we will meet you with care and do our best to support you:

• 0–5 minutes late: We will try to catch you up on the tour.

• 5–10 minutes late: If you can safely catch up without disrupting the group, you may join. If not, we will reschedule and provide a self-guided map.

• 10+ minutes late: We will reschedule and provide a self-guided map.
