On Saturday, October 25, 2025, two of the Bay Area’s most impactful college access events — the UC Berkeley Showcase and College Information Day — are coming together for the first time to launch a powerful new experience: College Information Day at UC Berkeley.
Co-hosted by UC Berkeley and the East Bay Consortium, this fall open house invites middle school, high school, and college transfer students, their families, counselors, and community partners to campus for a comprehensive and inspiring introduction to college planning, admissions, and student life.
With an emphasis on access and college readiness, the event features:
- Interactive campus walking tours
- Faculty- and staff-led sessions
- Student performances and panels
- Dedicated family workshops
Together, we aim to equip students with the information, support, and inspiration they need to confidently pursue higher education.
Registration is now live—sign up today!
