Welcome to California State University San Marcos, your new home away from home! We are so proud that you chose University Village as your place to live, learn and grow. We are excited that the new semester is soon approaching and look forward to a wonderful new year!

This website provides information about The San Marcos Experience, an opportunity for 100 students to live together on campus, take General Education classes within a cohort, and have a customized academic and social enhancement program designed specifically for them.
