On Saturday, October 25, 2025, UC Berkeley partnered with the East Bay Consortium to host College Information Day, an annual on-campus recruitment event. This year, prospective middle school, high-school, and transfer students travelled to UC Berkeley for a day of exploration and guidance. Despite the rainy weather, the event’s energy remained high as students connected with representatives from Berkeley, other UC campuses, the California State Universities system and other universities.

Staff and students from the College of Letters & Science hosted an information table focused on helping students learn more about the 79 majors and programs housed within the College of L&S. Team members spoke with students about what to expect from the UC application process, how to declare a major, and how to make the most of opportunities available to undergraduates once on campus.

Departments and colleges across UC Berkeley showcased their own academic offerings and resources, creating a welcoming environment that reflected the campus’s dedication to college access, outreach, and student success.

The College of Letters & Science thanks the East Bay Consortium, the UC Berkeley Undergraduate Admissions Team, and all partners who helped make this day possible and supported Berkeley’s mission to open doors for the next generation of scholars.
