Join us for Slice of Life at UCR, a series of short Instagram Live events for prospective first-year and transfer students.

Current students, admission counselors, and even our mascot, Scotty Highlander, will share what campus life is like, how to apply, and a brief mock class (don’t worry, there’s no quiz!).

Plus, you could win an iPad 10.2” or AirPods Pro! To participate in the drawing, attend at least one (1) Slice of Life at UCR event on Instagram Live. Each event you attend is worth one (1) entry. Winners will be announced on @lifeatucr [ link to https://www.instagram.com/lifeatucr/ ] on Friday, Nov. 5, at 4 p.m. Pacific.

Slice of Life at UCR events will be hosted on Instagram Live Nov. 1–4 at various times (Pacific). If you can't make every event, catch them all on @lifeatucr [ link to https://www.instagram.com/lifeatucr/ ] after Nov. 4.
