Campus Arrival

Upon arriving to campus, stop at the guard booth and inform them that you are attending Waves Day. Please kindly follow their instructions regarding parking, as this will greatly improve traffic flow on campus. We recommend that you arrive to campus at least 30 minutes prior to the Welcome Session to allow time for parking, taking the shuttle, the check-in process, and enjoying the light refreshments available.

The day's celebrations will predominately take place outdoors. We encourage you to plan accordingly for the weather and wear comfortable shoes for walking around our hilly campus.

All Admitted Student Events

In addition to Admitted Waves Day, we will be hosting regional admitted student receptions across the country, admitted student campus tours of our Malibu campus, coffee chats with a current student, and a variety of virtual events.  To register, visit the Admitted Student Event Portal.
