Campus Tours

www.campustours.uci.edu Campus tours occur every Monday through Friday at 12 p.m., lasting for approximately one hour.

Overnight Visits

www.housing.uci.edu/sop Each spring, UCI offers prospective students the Stay Over Program (SOP) to experience a day in the life of an Anteater. Students get the freedom to roam about the campus and attend lectures while getting to know both students and faculty. Thus, the experience is not reduced to just a pillow fight in the dorm (though that would definitely serve as a fun bonus to the experience).

Fun Fact: The first time Tracey went rock climbing on a real rock she was able to climb all the way to the top, but not before scraping her whole left arm along the jagged wall and swearing like a sailor every time her foot slipped!
