University of California-Davis Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Emaly

The best thing about attending UC Davis was the smaller town feel. The campus is beautiful with lots of trees and a safe town surrounding. Access to the campus revolves around a reliable bussing system (which I used daily) and classes were only a short walk from each bus hub. The environment is the best part of UC Davis, in my opinion, because many other schools I visited were not as nice looking or in good areas. UC Davis is very safe and requires a short drive to Sacramento for any major shopping/recreation.

Kelsey

The best thing about UC Davis is how friendly the students and staff are. Instead of the competitive vibes that some schools have, which lead to stress and anxiety for some students, those who attend Davis encourage one another to be the best that they can possibly be. This gives the school an overall positive and uplifting vibe which I feel is unique, rare, and gives students an uplifted feeling. I believe this helps students in countless ways to help overcome any hardships they may face while in school.

I find the best thing about my school is that there are so many different types of people in regards to what they want to do with their life and careers.

Paloma

It was so environmentally friendly. It was great that everyone rode their bikes around and was conscious of their waste.

Giana

The best thing about UC Davis would have to be its ability to keep a sense of humor. So many students see Davis as a place for agricultural study, and a plethora of cow and farming jokes are constantly handed out to Aggies. However, UC Davis has an incredible ability to take these jokes and teasing lightly, and what would once be considered insults to the agricultural community are considered by Davis as amusement.

Grace

The entire atmosphere is one of a typical college town- hundreds of bikes fill the streets, students are everywhere with their backpacks, taking naps on the lawn, running to class, or simply spending time at a local coffee shop chatting or doing school work.

Naji

The diversity and the overall friendliness of the students, faculty, and staff. It's also pretty awesome that the entire University of California system is going tobacco free in 2014. The studious environment of the school as a whole is very welcoming, fun, and pleasant.

Emily

UC Davis offers a friendly welcoming environment to all students. This school has been voted #1 cool school and also the #1 school for any agriculture related field.

Jenna
