University of California-Davis Top Questions

Describe the students at University of California-Davis.

Emaly

Because the class sizes were usually very large, classmates were simply a wide ranging group of people who interacted in class, but were not likely to be friends outside of the classroom.

Kayla

I would imagine that in some classmates become friends, but to me they are all just strangers sitting and staring; they stare at their notebooks, computers, phone, lecturer, presentation, or space.

Paloma

The people I met while at Davis were the friendliest group of people I've ever gone to school with.

Pat

There are so many different groups of students on campus, whether its with a club, a fraternity/sorority, or student athletes, that it is impossible to not find a solid group of friends to hang out with.

Grace

My classmates are driven, motivated, and competitive--however they have a deep reservoir for compassion, acceptance, and kindness.

Dominik

Clubs, clubs and clubs, there are tons of associations to be apart of and you can definitely create your own as well. Personally I'm on the Rugby Club team and it acts as a sport and a Fraternity. Greek life is huge on campus, enough said. Distinctions about students are generally hard to make as we all fit in together pretty well but it's pretty easy to pick out the foreign students and they are the only major division among the student body. Student here definitely have their eyes set on the future and financial security in the future and the current stability is always important. Students and Faculty are definitely politically aware here and largely lean left but it's not impossible to stick to your guns. (I'm a rightist). Also, last note, students here are pretty darn good looking.

Denver

My classmates are willingly helpful in a friendly and hardworking individuals who live life with a passion.

Ger

Usually half of my classmates are interested in the course, while the rest are indifferent.

The students attending Davis are kind and well-natured people. They are open, friendly, and accepting to all. Davis is a college town, meaning there are students wherever you go. The students are dedicated to their work, and they are extremely supportive of one another. Thanks to them, Davis has evolved into a healthy learning environment that it is known for today.

UC Davis is very diverse with a lot of different people with different backgrounds. I don't think anybody would really feel left out when they come here. Although more than 30{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the students here are Asian, there are still plenty of diversity in this school. Every student is involved in at least 1 club or activity at UC Davis whether it is LGBT, religious or racial organization. Most of the students are from California, but there are an increasing number of international students from Asia, Europe, Africa and South America. From the Korean international students that I know, the majority of the Korean universities recommend UC Davis as a great option to study abroad at. Financially, UC Davis is fairly pricey but definitely not as expensive as the private schools. Although tuition is increasing, there are plenty of opportunities to grab scholarships and internships here to earn money and cover up those fees. Students here are pretty active with politics, but the school doesn't really have a dominant side. You could say that UC Davis is just about in the center with different views on politics.
