Spring 2024 GLC Schedule:
 

• Who is eligible to apply to GLC?  

  • All current first-year and second year SFSU students are welcomed to the program regardless of major.  
     

• Are there any requirements to apply?  

  • Must be a freshmen or sophomore to apply and, you must be available each week for the entire programmed time that the program is scheduled to meet IN-PERSON.  
     

• Can I participate in GLC remotely through Zoom?  

  • As of Fall 2023, we are committing to keeping GLC fully IN-PERSON with no remote alternative. We understand that not everybody is available at these times, but believe the networking and face to face elements of our program are necessary for our students.

  • Meetings will be conducted in-person in Rosa Parks A-C in the Cesar Chavez Student Center. Please note attendance is a mandatory requirement for completion of our program. Please only consider applying if our meeting time (Tuesdays 2:00-3:30PM) works for your class and work schedule.  
     

• I just transferred and I am in my second semester as a freshman, am I eligible?  

  • Yes, you are still considered a freshmen or sophomore and you are welcome to apply.
      

• Do I need to bring anything with me to the meetings?  

  • An open mind, big smile and a notebook and pen since there will be a lot of valuable information!
