Checking Application Status
On this page you will find details on logging into your student portal for the purpose of viewing your application status. CSUF receives thousands of applications. During peak seasons, materials you have submitted, such as test scores or transcripts, do not get processed in the online system as quickly as we would all like. Please be patient if you notice there is information that has not been updated yet. Please also take advantage of the information on the Admissions Office website for answers to frequently asked questions. Not logging into your Student Portal can result in a delayed admission decision or having your application withdrawn for missing a deadline.
- Student Portal First Time Login - If you have never logged into the portal before start here.
- Student Portal Subsequent Logins - After creating your username and password this is how you can login.
- Viewing Application Status - Once in the portal here are the steps to view your status.
- Finding your CWID (Student ID) - If you don't remember your Campus-wide ID try this.
- Finding your PIN - If you lost your PIN and never logged in before go here.
Student Portal First Time Login
Before you begin locate your assigned campus-wide ID (CWID) and PIN in your acknowledgement letter from the Admissions Office. This letter is mailed shortly after we receive your application. You need the information on this letter to log into the Student Portal.

- Step 1 - Go to the CSUF campus Student Portal login page: http://my.fullerton.edu
- Step 2 - Type your Campus-Wide ID (CWID) as the Username and your PIN as the Password. Click Login.
- Step 3 - Complete the profile update. You will be asked to choose a personalized campus username and password. Create ones you will remember as you will use your personalized campus username and password the next time you log in to the Student Portal. Always retain your CWID for campus identification. You will also be asked to select hint questions and you will be given the option to update your cell phone number. When you finish entering the required information, click Submit.
- Step 4 - You should now be brought to the Student Portal. For future logins use your custom username and password. The PIN can no longer be used at this point.
Student Portal Subsequent Logins
If you have already created your custom username and password as outlined in the steps above then you are ready to login at http://my.fullerton.edu.
Recovering Lost Username/Password
If you do not remember your username and/or password then you can utilize the "Forgot your password" function.
