Student / Parent Orientation Program (SPOP)

"Together"
A small glimpse into SPOP!

Testimonials
Take a look at what past participants have said about SPOP.

• “The hall activities such as ‘cross the line’ and hall closing challenged my emotions. It made me think about the diversity of the campus and the sense of community that is UC Irvine. These hall activities were not only fun but eye-opening as well.”

• "The staffers were awesome, and everyone was very welcoming. The activites to get the students involved helped me learn about the school.

• "All presentors were excellent and very knowledgeable. Liked the workshops with lots of Q & A opportunities. Housing tour was excellent and tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable."

• "I felt given the size of the school, everyone did a great job of being open and available for us"

• "The students who ran the whole thing were exceptional in not only their enthusiasm, but in their professionalism and genuine desire to make everyone feel welcome and informed. Excellent job! I hope my daughter participates in future years. She would love it!"
