Connect with one of our senior fellows, tour guides, or interns!
The college search process is not just about choosing a place to study, it’s also about choosing a community to join. Occidental prides itself on its dynamic, engaged, and passionate student body and we’re excited to connect you to some of them.
Each of the students below has volunteered to candidly answer any questions you might have about life at the College. They’ve been through the college search, and are ready to serve as a resource for you now. Check back in the next few weeks for bios from our 6 Admission Summer Interns, who look forward to connecting with you.
