BA/BSc in Psychology - Batch of 2026
4.1
There are lots of opportunity available to learn and grow.
Tips: The campus is beautiful and there is a lot of space to study or unwind especially outdoors. If you are passionate about research and experimenting, then this would be a right fit for you as here students are encouraged to explore their own niche and ideas. Finally, one of the biggest assets of studying here would be its reputation as a teaching hub and the windows of opportunities present.
Likes (Indian Food): I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of Indian restaurants within the vicinity and how popular the cuisine is here. You will never feel out of place and there are specific restaurants for different states such as South Indian, Gujarat, etc. Most of them are pretty reasonable and the Indian grocery stores are quite popular as well.

MS in Statistics - Batch of 2028

its been a good ride so far
Tips: Before joining students should know that UC Davis is an expensive place to pursue their higher education so it would make more sense to come here with a scholarship or at least if you are keen on pursuing a degree which is more probable to land you a job. I would recommend you experiment with your electives and participate in cross-cultural events as those are a lot of fun. The faculty is supportive and motivates us to actively take part in events and activities. Overall, I am satisfied with the course and the country,
Dislikes (Internships): My main issue with internships is that although there are some very promising companies available, the college has minimal assistance in helping you land an ideal internship. You will instead be left to your own devices and will have to figure it out individually.

BSc in Managerial Economics - Batch of 2028

Friendly faculty and big and vibrant campus with a good ranking.
Tips: Students should be prepared to go through a lot of work at once. Unfortunately, UC Davis has a quarter system, which means there's no break from rigorous academics. Unlike other schools that have semester systems, we go through a lot of work at once. The only advantage is you get a lot of time off. Time management is key when at UC Davis. Students enjoy attending various extracurricular activities organized by the college, including a career and internship fair. The campus provides many places to spend the day attending lectures and completing assignments. The faculty is good. They will help you with assignments and are very approachable. Overall, I am highly satisfied with my experiences.

Great campus and culture here.
Tips: I initially found it tricky to settle into the college mainly because I did not have a bank account or a credit card which could be used here since most of the transactions that take place are cashless. Hence, when you get time to settled on campus, make sure you book an appointment with a local bank and the student services who will be very helpful at this time. Side from this, the students are very supportive and the campus hosts a number of sporting events which are very popular here. Finally, it has been a wonderful experience and I am very satisfied with the experiences.

UC Davis: A satisfying student experience with good financial aid
Tips: The food habits and managing finance are two things I notice that are very different from my home country. Having said that once you get habituated, it is not a big deal to survive. UC Davis has very good TA opportunities and other scholarships that can be utilised for paying the bills and fees. I am very satisfied with my university and the course I am taking. The research opportunities are good. UC Davis has a great bicycle culture. So you will not see much vehicle pollution in Davis. It is a calm and serene college town.

Learning and helpful environment.
Tips: I have become way more organised and focused after coming here as the academic pressure is paramount in a course like mine. The faculty are knowledgeable and very passionate about what they're teaching which helps in understanding the course material. Select your accommodation preference in advance as you can also select your preferred roommates. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experience.
