Student Success Center
We are here to help
CAL's Student Success Center offers a comprehensive range of services to support students in the College of Arts and Letters.
We endeavor to give each student as much individualized attention as possible. Since student issues often extend beyond the purview of this office, we maintain constant communication with all campus entities in order to provide students with the best possible assistance. The mission of this office is to enhance each student's college experience by providing assistance that will support the student's primary educational goal: attaining a degree.

Internships are a great way to start your career and become more competitive in the job market. An internship can strengthen your résumé, help you to develop real-world skills, and build a network of professional and personal contacts.
The College of Arts & Letters recognizes the importance of internships, while not all of our majors require an internship as part of their programs of study; we recommend an internship for all of our majors.
For more information, check with your adviser or visit Internship Central on the SDSU Career Services website.
