University of California-Davis Reviews

"Graduate program in Ecology is exceptional! Well balanced and overall an amazing peer/academic group- both students and faculty."

"The transportation here is not that convenient to me. However, it is a quiet and peaceful place which I enjoy most."

"im a first year, so please dont take my ratings too seriously"

"Davis is a really great place to study! I really enjoy the small town feel, it makes studying law much less stressful. However, the surrounding cities are not that great. You have to drive about 1-1/2 hours to get to Napa or SF. But I would recommend it to many! Also housing is very cheap and relatively new."

"I found my department to be unsupportive for the women in my year (2 of 7 have dropped out, 3 others may be forced out) and ineffective in dealing with harassment. The surrounding area, the small town, is very peaceful and beautiful."

"I would like to see more classes that focus on diversity in the School of Education"

"Great program - make sure to choose your advisor well!"

"UC Davis is a stellar school overall, particularly in academics and the surrounding community."

"overall I think the graduate program here is stellar."

"I do not know much about the athletics, so my rating may be unfair. However, the graduate program, which I am attending, is excellent.."

"The Campus Police are a problem. They pepper spray student sometimes."

"Choosing the Ecology Graduate Group at UCDavis was the best decision I've ever made. Wonderful community, brilliant and fun peers, big deal faculty who love to talk to students over coffee. Davis itself if a really great place to live with the farmer's market, bikes galore, and lots of community events. The GGE in particular has a propensity for outrageous costume parties right when you need a break from work."

"Recognized as a leading research institution."

"Fantastic, well-rounded, valuable program! High quality professors, diverse and friendly student body, insightful classes, useful extracurricular activities, helpful career guidance, fun events!"

"The psychology graduate program is great, but the town of Davis is too small for me."

"Great program for methodological training and theoretical development"

"Studying at UC Davis was both challenging and rewarding. It was a wonderful experience for a foreign student."

"I love it here! Wonderful faculty, amazing students, wonderful place to live."

"Davis is a good school. One of the main problems with it is that graduate students are not paid enough to survive in Davis without either taking out loans or barely scraping by."

"Great school to and a fantastic place to get a great education."
