Yes, this is an in-person event on our campus, with no hybrid or virtual options available. We encourage you to join us on-site to make the most of the activities, tours, and networking opportunities.

Unfortunately, pets are not allowed at the event, with the exception of service animals. Service animals must be wearing their official service jackets to be allowed on campus.

You’re welcome to accompany your student! There will be a variety of events and resources specifically dedicated to parents and family members, so feel free to stay and enjoy the experience. There’s no need to simply drop them off. Both you and your student are encouraged to attend info sessions and activities that are most relevant to you, depending on your available time. However, staying for the full day will ensure you don’t miss any valuable opportunities or information.

We recommend downloading our UC San Diego Guides App in advance and reviewing the schedule to plan their day. The app allows them to create a personalized itinerary with the sessions and activities they want to attend. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring essentials such as a notebook, pen, refillable water bottle, and money to purchase food and drinks, ensuring they can fully enjoy the experience.

Information sessions are 30-minute presentations that provide valuable insights into academic programs and student services, helping your student gain a clear understanding of what’s offered. In the mobile app, you can view the session descriptions to ensure they are relevant. Please note that sessions are organized by tracks, with some specifically tailored for first-year students, transfer students, or both. Be sure to refer to the Guidebook event app to identify the tracks that apply to your student.

At the resource fair, students will have the opportunity to connect with representatives from various campus organizations, student services, and departments to explore the support and opportunities available to them. Students can gather valuable information such as contact details, brochures, and occasionally some fun swag!

Department open houses offer students the chance to explore the school’s facilities, meet faculty and staff, and experience the environment firsthand. It’s a great opportunity to learn about the various offerings and resources available to your student. For information on times and locations of the open houses, please download the event mobile app for more details.
