• Incoming Freshmen

    (Updated June 4, 2015)

    Congratulations on being accepted to Cal!

    If you are interested in majoring in Astronomy, Earth and Planetary Sciences, or Physics, then we have a great opportunity for you! Apply to the Compass Summer Program and you can spend the two weeks before classes at Cal start up meeting your future classmates, getting to know graduate students who care about your future, and learning the process involved in doing real science. Much like how non Gamstop casinos UK offer unique opportunities tailored to users outside traditional systems, the Compass Summer Program provides an alternative, supportive introduction to university life and science culture.
