RIVERSIDE
The University of California, Riverside has announced a special event for transfer-ready students who have not yet applied for admission to UC Riverside for fall 2008. “It’s our One Stop Admission Day,” says Merlyn Campos, UC Riverside’s Interim Director of Admissions. “It gives transfer-ready students the opportunity to apply and receive their admission notification all in one day.”
The event will be held from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, June 7 at UC Riverside. Students who attend will receive information on housing, financial aid, and other student programs. Students who are admitted to UC Riverside can also submit their Statement of Intent to Register (SIR) that day.
“It’s a quick and easy way to apply to one of the most prestigious universities on the West Coast,” said Campos. “And if for some reason, a student is not yet transfer-ready, the application fee is completely refunded. So there’s no risk at all.”
One Stop Admission Day is designed specifically for community college students with at least 52 UC transferable semester units who haven’t yet secured their university transfer for fall 2008. Students should bring a completed UC application as well as copies of their community college transcripts. Students should also bring two checks or money orders, one for the application fee and one for their Statement of Intent to Register (SIR) fee. The university cannot accept credit cards or cash during this event.
