Accommodations

All lodging and meals while attending the Academy will be provided by the Student Success Network.

We have reserved a block of rooms at all locations for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday nights so that participants may travel the night before programming begins. You do not need to reserve your own room with the venue. Please note, Network resources do not allow for reimbursement of hotel costs at any other venue during the Academy. Exceptions may be made for campuses with extenuating circumstances.

If you have any food restrictions, require certain physical accommodations with regards to lodging, or have other needs that we should know about, please notify us at csunetwork-mla@csus.edu immediately.
