UC Application Walkthrough: Sections 1-3

This workshop is designed for Fall 2025 applicants. This will be a working session. We encourage you to log in with a computer (not a phone/tablet) in order to participate. 

This virtual workshop will not allow late attendees as we go through each section as a group. Please plan accordingly. If you need additional help, please reach out to your CC Transfer Center.

We recommend reviewing our previously recorded UC application and PIQ overview on our TOP YouTube channel.

Prior to the virtual lab, please do the following:

• Step 1: Gather your documentation. Review this checklist. 

During this interactive webinar, you will work on:

• Section 1: About you
• Section 2: Campuses and Majors
• Section 3: Academic History

If we finish early, we can provide you with some tips on PIQ! Please consider going to the writing center at your CC and attending TOP PIQ Roundtable to refine your writing before submitting the UC application in October-November. 

To receive UCD TOP services, students from TOP participating colleges must have a UC TAP account. Space is limited for all lab sessions. Once we reach max capacity, we will not allow any more registrations to be submitted. If you're no longer available, please cancel your registration through the confirmation email. 

If you have any questions about this session, please contact the session facilitator, Sheila Xiong at smxion@ucdavis.edu.
