Summer Housing
Summer Edge Residential
Program
Summer Edge students live with their cohort of newly admitted students and Peer Mentors in the Merrill College residence halls for the duration of the program, regardless of college affiliation.
This is a unique opportunity to experience residential life on campus before the busy rush of fall and get to know the UCSC and local Santa Cruz culture.
Join us on campus to:
- Make new friends through social programs.
- Get tips for academic success in workshops.
- Learn your way around campus before fall.
- Connect with staff, faculty and resources.
- Visit iconic Santa Cruz landmarks.
