Sensory-Friendly Study Space

The room has calm grey walls, multiple lighting options, various textures and seating options, a sand garden, and a small collection of stims.

Tailor your environment to fit your focus.

Our Sensory-Friendly Study Space is a reservable, private environment designed to support neurodivergent students and anyone who wants a more intentional atmosphere for academic work. We recognize that everyone’s sensory needs are different—some require total calm to process information, while others need movement or tactile stimulation to stay engaged.

All CSU students are welcome to reserve this space.
