Remember for those of you that got accepted to the UCSC Chancellor’s reception. It is Sunday March 24, 2019 at the Hilton in Anaheim - Pacific Ballroom (second floor) from 2 to 4pm. My daughter already RSVP. See you there!

@Brandon2000 My son was invited but has an honor band concert tomorrow afternoon. I would love to hear what it was like, if you would like to share. :slight_smile:

Yes, I will share what info they talk about.

@teachmomof2 The chancellor spoke along with other Alumni about their experiences about the college. Very informative and anyone could ask questions. They gave info about financial aid and passed out material about the school. It was about 2 hours long. Also talked about visiting the campus in April if you sign up.

@Brandon2000 Thank you! We are planning to go up and do the tour and Q&A for the engineering department. Thanks again!
