COVID-19
UC Santa Barbara continues to develop responses to the COVID-19 outbreak. Read more about current campus information.
The CCS Building (bldg. 494) and the Old Little Theater are closed until further notice. We appreciate your understanding. Current students, please see our CCS COVID-19 FAQ which will be updated as we learn more.
Prospective students, while we regret we cannot connect in person at this time, we look forward to connecting with you virtually. Students who have been admitted to the College of Creative Studies will be contacted directly. In addition, UCSB will be hosting a Virtual Open House on April 22, 2020.
