Save The Date - Triton Days Events 2026

We are thrilled to announce the dates for our signature Triton Days events, hosted by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions! These events celebrate and welcome our future Tritons, giving them the chance to explore all that UC San Diego has to offer.

Triton Days 2026 Events:

Triton Days Open House - Saturday, April 11, 2026. A one-day program for transfer applicants and admitted first-year students, held at locations across campus.
Transfer Celebration - Friday, May 8, 2026. A special event dedicated to celebrating newly admitted transfer students, held on Sun God Lawn.

Last year, Triton Days Open House welcomed more than 12,000 students and families, while Transfer Celebration hosted 2,250+ participants. These events offer guests a valuable opportunity to experience UC San Diego’s vibrant, supportive community, while allowing departments to connect early with future Tritons, answer questions, and showcase why our campus is the perfect fit for them.

Department Participation Opportunities:

Triton Days Open House: resource fair tabling, 30-minute information sessions, and department open houses.
Transfer Celebration: resource fair tabling.

We encourage all departments to participate in both events. The participation form will be open Wednesday, Jan. 7 – Wednesday, Feb. 4, 2026.
