Welcome To The Future U Project
East Entrance coming from Friendship Walk Stairs
Your visit to this site can only mean one thing: you care about the future of
student life at Long Beach State University (LBSU). That is awesome! We here
at Associated Students, Inc. (ASI) care about nothing more than students. That
is why our motto is, and always has been, “Keeping Students First!” Keeping
students first is also why The Future U project is so important to us, and we
are excited that you are joining us on this journey!
The Future U Project
The Future U Project is the largest University Student Union (USU) renovation
and expansion ever undertaken in the California State University (CSU) system.
This transformative initiative will enhance student life by creating modern,
inclusive, and innovative spaces that reflect the needs of our growing campus
community.
The project began with a year-long campaign during the 2022–23 academic year
to connect, engage, and listen to what students, faculty, and staff need in a
reimagined USU. The project was approved by the Student Fee Advisory Committee
(SFAC) in April 2023. Throughout the 2023–24 academic year, we worked with
Canon Design on a feasibility report, ensuring the project could stay within
budget while incorporating key priorities identified by campus stakeholders.
That report was completed in April 2024, and we have since selected Penta |
Gensler as our architect, design, and construction team for the remainder of
the project.
As part of the funding for the renovation and expansion, the increased USU fee
is now in effect at $504 per semester. The fee includes a mandatory
inflationary increase for the previous fee based on the Consumer Price Index
(CPI), which is assessed and adjusted every 3 years. The next CPI assessment
will be evaluated in 2028. This fee helps fund construction and renovation
efforts as well as the ongoing programs, services, and staffing that support
student life at The Beach.
The building is closed for construction. Services and programs are still available in relocated spaces across campus.
