TAP Interest FormLoading...For more than 20 years, Occidental has hosted fall and spring multicultural programs. The Tiger Access Program (TAP), formerly known as the Multicultural Visit Program (MVP), introduces traditionally underrepresented, first-generation and/or low-income students to Oxy's academic and residential community. Historically, the College pays travel expenses for high school seniors interested in Oxy to visit campus and witness firsthand what makes us unique. COVID-19 restrictions have changed our ability to offer transportation to campus, but we are committed to creating a personalized and informative experience for underrepresented students considering Occidental College. Students who submit this interest form will be notified when the application is available. We encourage all students interested in Oxy to also explore our website and social media accounts. Note: This program is intended for prospective first-year applicants only. If you are a prospective transfer student, you can learn more about additional ways to engage with the College here.I am a: *I am a: *Prospective First-Year StudentCounselor, Teacher, or EducatorFirst Name *Last Name *Title *Email Address *School or Organization Name *School or Organization AddressSchool or Organization AddressCountryStreetCityRegionPostal CodeStudent Type *First-YearTransferEnrollment Term *2025 Fall Semester2025 Spring Semester2026 Fall Semester2026 Spring Semester2027 Fall Semester2027 Spring Semester2028 Fall Semester2028 Spring SemesterStudent First Name *Student Last Name *Student Preferred First Name/NicknameStudent Email Address *Student Permanent Address *Student Permanent Address *CountryStreetCityRegionPostal CodeDo you have a different mailing address?Do you have a different mailing address?YesNoStudent Mailing Address *Student Mailing Address *CountryStreetCityRegionPostal CodeGender IdentityBirthdate *Birthdate *JanuaryFebruaryMarchAprilMayJuneJulyAugustSeptemberOctoberNovemberDecember1234567891011121314151617181920212223242526272829303120242023202220212020201920182017201620152014201320122011201020092008200720062005200420032002200120001999199819971996199519941993199219911990198919881987198619851984198319821981198019791978197719761975197419731972197119701969196819671966196519641963196219611960195919581957195619551954195319521951195019491948194719461945194419431942194119401939193819371936193519341933193219311930192919281927192619251924192319221921192019191918191719161915191419131912191119101909190819071906190519041903190219011900Ethnic Background (Optional)Ethnic Background (Optional)American Indian or Alaska NativeAsianBlack or African AmericanHispanic/LatinoNative Hawaiian or Other Pacific IslanderWhiteCurrent School Name *(Begin typing your school's name to search, then select your school from the drop down.
