Welcome to Oakes College!

We are excited to welcome you to campus.

• Welcome Week will begin with your move-in date.
• Please check your UCSC email for your assigned move-in time.
  • Click here for more information on Move-In.
• Most events are optional while some are mandatory. New students are strongly encouraged to attend as many events as possible. Get involved early, make connections and start the year off strong! 

The Welcome Week Schedule is Coming Soon! 

We've teamed up with Guidebook to create the UCSC Colleges guide to help students navigate their way through the college experience! Students will be able to keep track of all the interesting events they want to attend (an all the mandatory events they must attend) with the guide's personalizable calendar and targeted schedules for each community! Users can also quickly access important resources and information, like maps, dining hall hours, and advising schedules!

Mobile App (for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices):

Beginning in September, you will be able to download "UCSC Colleges" app from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.

Web Version (for computer, Windows Phone 7, and Blackberry devices):

Printed Version

A limited number of printed guides will be available during move-in for students without a compatible device.
