The History Department enthusiastically invites newly-admitted students and their families to attend Admitted Student Tours 2019. Visiting the campus during Admitted Student Tours is an excellent opportunity to learn more about the history program at UC Santa Cruz, our student support services, and the History Department community. We hope your visit to UC Santa Cruz will include several of the following History Department Spring Spotlight opportunities. We are excited to learn more about you, your interests, and to introduce you to our faculty and student community!

Visit a History Course

Would you like to know what a college level history course is like? Prospective students and their families are invited to attend history courses during their campus visit. Please use the History Department Admitted Student Tours Calendar of Events to identify courses you may attend. Please introduce yourself to the instructor before class begins. We also ask that you minimize disruptions to the course lecture by either remaining for the entire class period or sitting near an exit where you can depart discreetly.

Talk to the History Major Adviser

Undergraduate major advisers help students clarify and formulate their academic plans of study and develop long-term educational goals. Stephanie Sawyer, the history undergraduate major adviser, welcomes the opportunity to discuss the philosophy and pedagogy of the history program with you. Prospective students and their families may meet with Stephanie in the History Department main office (Humanities 1, room 201) during the times indicated on the History Department Admitted Student Tours Calendar of Events. If you'd like to set up an appointment to meet with Stephanie outside of these designated walk-in hours, please email her.
