Cal State San Marcos has a brand new 332-bed housing complex for students near campus. Next year, the university will break ground on a new affordable housing and dining facility on campus for low income students.

First year students at Cal State San Marcos are feeling the jitters as classes kick off this week. But some of them get to wind down in the brand new housing facility that no students have lived in before. KPBS North County reporter Tania Thorne gives us a look at the school’s newest housing complex.

He says North Commons is just a fraction of the full North City project that is in the works. “Roughly a 200 acre specific plan in the city of San Marcos that’ll have a mix of different uses from student units to market rate housing, single-family housing, a lot of great retail and a lot of office space that will be coming in the near future,” Levitt said.

“CSUSM is no longer just a commuter campus, this is a place that students are excited to be at and a place that we really want to make sure this is the best years of their life," she said. CSUSM is one of the youngest CSUs in the state and Serrano says it holds even more potential as it gets developed.
