Anyone who has applied to CSU Fullerton, Northridge, or Long Beach...

According to these schools' websites none of these programs require you to send in letters of recommendation. However, the CSUMentor application has a space for three academic references. Does anyone know if these references are ever actually contacted? I called a couple of the schools' departments and the people I spoke to didn't seem sure, but said to go ahead and list the references since there was space on the application. However, I feel that doing so would mean that I would have to notify my references (on the very small chance that they were actually contacted), which I'm hesitant to do because I've already asked them to write letters for other schools and I don't want to annoy them with another request.

 

Anyone have any insight on this issue?
