`Runner Launch
Ready to Launch?
`Runner Launch allows students to take one or more of their first year courses ahead of schedule, with extra academic support, free meals, and other activities. Tuition fee waivers are also available for qualified students.
Scroll down for more information!
`Runner Launch courses are all real university courses required as part of your General Education requirements. Runner Launch courses are either A2 (Written Communication), B4 (Quantitative Reason), or FYS (First Year Seminar).
In other words, `Runner Launch gives you a chance to take one of your Math, English, and/or Seminar courses before you start in Fall.
Our interactive Program Pathways Mapper website can show you which courses you need based on your major. Check our list of available `Runner Launch courses against this map to see how many classes you can do ahead of schedule.
Still not sure about which paths you would need to take? Contact us at runnerlaunch@csub.edu or 661-654-6611.

We know pursuing higher education requires hard work and dedication, but we also want you to know that you have CSUB and `Runner Launch on your side! We have put together a fantastic program to help you be a CSUB success!
- FREE academic support and tutoring for the entire summer!
- Taking university classes for the first time can be challenging, but we're here to help! Tutors for all `Runner Launch courses will be available throughout the summer and are looking forward to helping you. (Don't worry; they'll be here to help out in the Fall too.)
We're glad you asked!
`Runner Launch courses are eligible for a fee waiver for students with an Student Aid Index (SAI) of $6,000 or less. Your EFC is determined by your FAFSA.
In other words, your tuition costs are waived if you qualify. This means you can not only take required CSUB courses with all of these additional benefits, but you can also potentially do it at no cost to you.
We are excited to have you on board!
We are still prepping the launch site, but we will be ready soon!
If you have questions before we reach out, give us a call at 661-654-6611 or email us at runnerlaunch@csub.edu.
