Coffee Chats

Coffee Chat Program

Connect with a Current Member

Coffee chats are a chance to sit down with a current UWEB member for a relaxed, 20–30 minute conversation. They are an informal opportunity to ask questions about the club, the recruitment process, and life at Berkeley before you submit your application.

Come curious. You can ask about anything: which committee might be right for you, what the time commitment looks like, how current members balance UWEB with academics and internships, or what the interview process is like. There are no wrong questions and no evaluation involved.

Coffee chats are available throughout the recruitment period. Sign-ups open on August 28th.
