DESCRIPTION

Eighth College is the newest of the eight undergraduate colleges at the University of California, San Diego and matriculated its first cohort of students in Fall 2023.

The program encourages interdisciplinary inquiry, critical thinking, and invites multifaceted engagement with communities - both in the San Diego area and elsewhere.
