University Student Union at CSUN

The University Student Union, Inc. (USU) at Cal State University, Northridge is a student centered non-profit organization that works to expand the college experience through various programs, employment, and involvement opportunities.

The USU first opened its doors on July 5, 1975 and is located on East University Drive. The Satellite Student Union (SSU) is located in the northern section of campus, adjacent to student housing. Each facility was designed to enhance the total university experience through volunteer and job opportunities, events, and various services such as food, study areas, computer labs, and TV lounges.

The USU is committed to providing inclusion, diversity, and personal growth to students as well as food, study areas, computer labs, TV lounges, events, and entertainment.
Completed in fall 2006, the USU underwent a $15 million renovation that included the new Sol Center and various upgrades throughout the facilities. The USU also recently passed a referendum to build the Student Recreation Center to meet the needs of the CSUN campus. The facility is scheduled to open 2012.
