I'm Dr. Itxaso Rodriguez, the undergraduate advisor for the Linguistics Department. I am preparing to set up a summer advising schedule for the first week of June. Each incoming transfer student will be invited to meet with me for a 30-minute, individual meeting where we will discuss your past classes, transfer credit, and develop a personalized schedule for Fall 2026. We will also discuss orientation and registration. Please watch your emails for an update!

You can contact me via email (Itxaso.Rodriguez@csulb.edu) to ask advising questions or set up an appointment if you cannot make it to my advising hours. Please see my office hour schedule below along with links to helpful information that might answer some of your questions.
