Information for Future Students

Sacramento State offers a vibrant academic culture with a multicultural student body of 28,000. We graduate about 6,000 students each year. Despite our size, quality teaching in small classes remains a top priority. Students enjoy personalized attention from their professors with a student-faculty ratio of 21 to 1.

Sacramento State remains one of the nation's best higher education values, with student fees among the lowest in the nation. About half of our students receive some form of financial assistance.

Our park-like 300-acre campus has 3,000 trees and miles of trails along the nearby American River Parkway, which links the campus and student housing with recreational areas such as Folsom Lake and Old Sacramento.
