Welcome to UC Merced!


We are so excited that our Bobcats have begun to arrive on campus! What better way to start the Fall 2021 semester than taking part in the Office of Student Involvement's Welcome Back Festivities? These fun events will serve as a great introduction to UC Merced. Throughout August and September, you're invited to participate in activities, programs and workshops to help you get involved and connect with fellow students, staff members and faculty. Check out the Welcome Back Festivities calendar to find out more. Important note: These events are subject to change. We encourage you to check catlife.ucmerced.edu frequently for updates as events will continue to be added once the semester kicks off.

As part of your transition to the Bobcat community, UC Merced has created a Ready for Fall Checklist. Take a look at this year's checklist and sign up for a Time Management Workshop to start your semester off right!
