Our academic reputation is outstanding and improves daily. Our Communication Studies, Political Science, Psychology, and Education departments rank among the top programs in the state and in the country. Communication Studies, the home of the forensic team, was recently ranked 8th in the country. Besides the opportunity to travel an extensive regional and national circuit of tournaments our coaching staff is unparalleled. Although we do not have any forensic related scholarships, living in Long Beach is reasonable, tuition for California state residents is cheap, and we offer good financial aid packages.
Several issues make Long Beach an excellent place to study and coach forensics.
We have an outstanding faculty. Long Beach is a great place to live. There is not much to explain. If you have visited you know that it is sunny and warm most of the year. Long Beach is approximately 45 minutes south of Los Angeles.
