Dear Prospective Student:

Thank you for your interest in CSUSM’s Liberal Studies Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) programs. 

If you want to be a K-8 teacher we offer two great options for the B.A. in Liberal Studies:

• Elementary Teacher Preparation Option (ESM)  – the traditional undergraduate program
• Integrated Credential Program Option (ICP)   – combines the undergraduate program with the Multiple Subject Credential program

The third option for a B.A. in Liberal Studies is a cutting edge program that explores border communities at the local and international levels. 
• Border Studies Option (BRS)

We hope you make CSUSM your first choice university, and we look forward to having you join our student body.
