One advantage of attending a large university like UC San Diego is the nearly unlimited opportunities outside of the classroom for you to learn and explore your interests. An added advantage of attending UC San Diego is the college system. Your college is invested in your success as an incoming student and you'll find many opportunities for involvement right in your college. In addition, you'll discover that many campus departments offer outlets for you to become involved in campus life.

Think of it as an extension of Welcome Week into the Fall Quarter. Through this website you will find a variety of opportunities for involvement just for incoming students like yourself. To help you identify the experiences that match your interests, First Fall is divided into six different directions. By exploring each of the directions, you can quickly become connected to UCSD and engaged in campus life.
