What is the Student Involvement and Representation Fee (SIRF)?

The Student Involvement & Representation Fee (SIRF) is a $2 fee assessed twice a year to all California State University (CSU) students to fund the Cal State Student Association (CSSA).

Established by CSSA, SIRF strengthens the organization’s ability to advocate for CSU students. It also ensures accountability by allowing students to opt-out if they choose not to participate.
