Great for these types of students Cal Maritime is very diverse!
What to do for fun Go out with friends! I like to go skydiving on weekends. Our school offers new movies for free! Every Thursdays our school shows a brand new movie to keep the students entertained. The school does offer sailing!
Food and Dining Just like a buffet everyday! You will have a chance to eat three times a day, but after hours you can go to Morrow Cove. Morrow Cove is a small shop that sells drinks, sandwiches, and salads.
Dorm Life The dorms are just like every other college. However, this school does offer 24-hour quite hours for those who prefer silence. These are CO-ed buildings, which means you will share the same halls, but not bathrooms.
Academic Rigor Majors: Global Studies and Maritime Affairs International Business and logistics Marine Transportation Facilities Engineering Mechanical Engineering
Tips for prospective students Come in with a closed mind, but an open heart. Adjust to the military uniform standards, remembering you are here for a college education and not fun.
In three sentences This is a great school with knowledgeable professors, who give their all in order for you to understand your major. It a school that offers specialized majors that will give you a cutting edge knowledge that others will never get. Cal Maritime Academy has one of the highest job placement out of all the CSU(s).
