Meet FPF Staff
Cal Day is the best opportunity to get to know UC Berkeley and all it has to offer. Come see us for a full day of presentations and activities geared for prospective Cal undergraduates.
Fall Program for Freshmen (FPF) staff will be on-hand to answer any questions you might have about our program. Meet us at the FPF information table and attend a special information session for prospective FPF students, held in Wheeler Auditorium, from 10:30–12 pm. This session will include strategies for securing housing for the fall semester.
In addition to Cal Day, FPF holds free information sessions about our program at our campus near UC Berkeley. All of the information sessions are currently at capacity. We strongly recommend attending the FPF information session on Cal Day instead (see above). Please note: The information presented at FPF information sessions will be a shortened version of the presentation at Cal Day, so it's not necessary to attend both.

Course Selection Advising Session: Our Academic Checklist is designed to help students select their fall course work. In addition, FPF will hold an optional course selection advising session at our campus on May 8, from 3 pm–5 pm. This session will highlight aspects of our Academic Checklist and give students an opportunity to ask questions about their fall selections in person.
In April, the Cal Alumni Association will host receptions throughout California to invite newly admitted students to enroll at UC Berkeley. Even though FPF staff cannot be present at all of these receptions, there are always Cal representatives available to answer questions for spring admits interested in FPF.

I got the small school feel with the big school spirit—everything I wanted! Very helpful staff. Great professors!
