OUR FAMS PROGRAM!
The Psychology Student Association Fams program is designed to help you connect with fellow students, enhance your academic experience, and create lasting friendships. Below, you'll find all the information you need about what a fam is, why you should join, and how to get involved!
1
What is a Fam?
A "fam" is a small, supportive group of psychology students brought together based on shared interests, hobbies, and personalities. Each fam offers a unique environment where members can collaborate and engage in social activities that foster deeper connections and friendships within PSA. By participating in a fam, you’ll not only enhance your academic journey but also create a tight-knit community among other psychology students.

Why Should You Join a Fam?
Joining a fam can greatly enrich your college experience and allows you to meet like-minded peers who share a passion for psychology through group activities, discussions, and collaborations. Participating in a fam is a fun way to engage in social events and activities that will help you feel more connected to both PSA and the UC Irvine community.
