FOR MORE INFORMATION
When you decide to attend UC Merced, you join a community that provides you
with fulfilling, exciting and fun academic and personal experiences. In order to
make a smooth transition, your next step is to attend New Student Orientation.
Orientation is a required one-day event during which you’ll receive assistance in
registering for your classes, make connections with faculty, staff and students and
discover more about campus services. Your parents are also encouraged to attend
the special programs we have planned for them.
Transfer Students: We encourage you to register for the orientation date(s)
with a program specifically designed for you. Please check our website for
more information.
