• Get a UCSC ID card. These are available at ID Card Services, located adjacent to the Bay Tree Bookstore. • Register for fall classes early, so there won't be any surprises if you have missing paperwork or something. (For instance, if you just graduated, you may have to have an updated transcript sent to UCSC to prove you got your degree.) • Get a CA driver's license or ID, and register your vehicle with the DMV. Even if you do not own the vehicle (like it's your parents'), technically you must register it anyway within 10 days. • Besides getting your CA driver's license, do other things that establish your California residency, like open a bank account, register to vote, etc. Of course the best way to establish residency is with a lease/rental agreement. The DMV, some banks, etc., are discussed in 5. 4
