Friday Visitation Program

 

If you are planning on applying to Berkeley Optometry, we encourage you to visit us! Every Friday, we offer student-led tours and an information session, followed by the opportunity to attend a Pre-Clinical class. Our Friday Visitation Program is coordinated by the Berkeley Optometry Ambassadors (BOA). Visitation programs for the Fall 2009 Semester will resume the week of September 7, 2009 and end on December 4, 2009.
