Support CSUN Athletics

At our core, CSUN embraces a singular commitment to serving our diverse and vibrant community in the San Fernando Valley. We are recognized as one of the top 10 universities in the nation for facilitating the upward social mobility of our students. More than 70% of our students are first-generation college students and 60% come from historically underserved backgrounds.

More than 56% of our undergraduates rely on federal grants for students with exceptional financial needs.

At CSUN, these students find excellent teachers, hands-on learning experiences in classrooms and research laboratories, as well as internships and other programs that prepare them to strengthen their communities and solve the world's biggest challenges.

Matador student-athletes are an inspiring example of this transformative work as they push themselves on and off their fields of competition to become the best versions of themselves.

For the 300-plus diverse Matador student-athletes who study and play at CSUN, sports are not just a passion; they are a pathway to upward mobility. Many receive life-changing scholarships to play one of our 19 Division 1 sports, providing access to an excellent education and enabling them to earn their degrees while pursuing their athletic passions. Our student-athletes arrive at CSUN to maximize their physical talents and are elevated by the inclusive educational experience. Upon graduation, our students leave with an education, direction, discipline and all the preparation they need to thrive in their lives beyond the university.
