University of California, Davis

Davis, one of the nation's top research universities, is highly regarded for its dedication to undergraduate teaching. It is also known for the quality of its student support services. Davis students graduate at a high rate and about two-thirds continue their studies at the graduate or professional level.

Founded in 1906, the campus is beautifully landscaped and the atmosphere is informal, relaxed and friendly. The campus borders some of Califonia's most productive farmlands and orchards. Forty miles of bike paths extend from the central campus, which is closed to motor vehicles, through the adjacent city of Davis (population 46,200) and into the surrounding countryside.

UC Davis is ideally located, with many outdoor recreational opportunities and cultural attractions nearby. San Francisco is a little more than 10 miles to the southwest and Sacramento is 15 miles away. Lake Tahoe, the Sierra Nevada ski resorts, the Napa Valley, and the coastal areas of Mendocino and Santa Cruz are each within 150 miles of the campus.

Davis students come from every county in California, 49 states, and 80 foreign countries. They are bright and creative, and represent diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds.
