Thank You for Attending Bobcat Day ’26!

While this event may be over, the feeling isn’t.

The time is approaching to make your decision. Say YES to UC Merced and everything you’ll accomplish starting as an undergraduate. From hands-on research opportunities and student clubs to a community unlike anywhere else, this is where your future begins.

Didn’t make it to Bobcat Day? No worries—you still have time to visit campus and take a family tour before the May 1 decision deadline.

Have questions about your admission, financial aid offer, or next steps? Our Students First Center is here to help.
