K-12 Recruitment

What is Recruitment?

Recruitment aims to promote a more diverse student body in higher education. This can look like working with campus partners like the Office of Undergraduate Admissions to provide support to high schoolers applying to college. 

Spring 

Senior Weekend (SW) is a student-run, 3-day, 4-night all-expense paid overnight program serving about 500 high school seniors who have been admitted to UC Berkeley. 

It is an opportunity for students to experience living in the residence halls or off-campus housing with current undergraduates from the RRCs. 

Newly admitted students participate in multicultural programs, workshops, and cultural events that will give them the opportunity to engage and interact with current UC Berkeley undergraduates and other admitted students. 

As the largest yield event at Cal, this weekend is an opportunity for students to establish essential social networks before they enter post-secondary education.
