NEXT STEPS: FEE PAYMENT DEADLINE AND MOVE-IN DETAILS
Tuesday, August 6 7 to 8 P.M. PDT
The start of the fall semester is just around the corner! Join us for this live event to learn more about your financial responsibilities and housing move-in. Participants will have an opportunity to ask live questions about starting their academic journey at UC Merced.
It’s summer vacation for many of you and we hope you are out exploring or taking on new adventures. But, don’t forget to stay connected with UC Merced and keep up to date with important tasks.
We are excited about the start of the semester next month! There is so much happening on campus this year, and we’re excited for you to be a part of it!
Move-in Days for new students who are living in on-campus residence halls will take place between 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 22 through Sunday, Aug. 25. Students select their own move-in dates and times using the housing portal. Check the fall housing page to learn more.
We want to ensure you have a good life balance while you’re starting your new academic journey and learning your way around campus. In this newsletter, we’ll talk about a number of free physical and mental health services available to you, and we hope you will take advantage of them. We strive to instill a sense of security and well-being for the entire community, from our various wellness services to the emergency blue lights around campus.
Just one more newsletter left after this one, then we will see you on campus in August!

Opportunity for Incoming Undocumented Scholars
The UC Merced Office for Services for Undocumented Students annually provides the Knowledge Empowers You (KEY) Program for all new incoming undocumented scholars and their families. The KEY Program is intended to assist undocumented scholars and their families through the transition to UC Merced. In addition, the program also introduces the array of programs and services available through the Office for Services for Undocumented Students to support undocumented scholars during their tenure at the University. The KEY Program will be virtual and presented in two parts for Scholars. A scholar need only choose one session - REMEMBER each session is in two parts on two separate days. Parent/Family Members participating in the KEY Program need only register for one 4-hour session. There is no fee for the KEY Program. To view dates and to register, please go HERE.
