Student Activities

There is extensive program support for students outside of class, all of which contribute to students' rapid acquisition of English skills:

• The Speaking Partners Program matches an ALP student with a regular university student for weekly conversation and friendship
• Fun Trips takes students to many interesting and entertaining places around the Bay Area on weekends.

Here are some of the wonderful free or low-cost events and places that both the students and ALP Fun Trip Coordinator enjoy!

Cal State East Bay Campus Activities

Life beyond the classroom is an important part of the ALP experience. ALP students are encouraged to take an active part in campus life. The Cal State East Bay campus is host to many multicultural festivals and activities held to celebrate holidays and events.

Physical Education and Dance Classes

ALP students can attend University physical education, sports, and dance classes at no cost on a space-available basis.

Clubs and Organizations There are more than 90 special interest clubs and students are welcome to join one (or more) if they wish. Participating in a club provides ALP students an opportunity to be involved in activities with other students who share common interests while improving language skills and having fun. There are also opportunities to take an active part in student campus affairs and government. Click here to learn more.
