Im in the second quarter of my freshman year here and I am in love with Davis! Its an absolutely beautiful campus with really interesting professors and a lot of school spirit. You have to go into Davis knowing that our sports aren’t super good, and we don’t have many crazy parties, but its what you make of it. Theres a ton of students who go to football and basketball games and we all get really into it. And inter murals are a huge thing here, and so are club sports! In respect to social stuff, I would definitely say rush for a frat/sorority. I joined a sorority my fall quarter and it has given me the chance to go to parties. Outside of greek life, there really aren’t a ton of parties going on so I would recommend doing that if you can. If you are just in it for the social part then you can drop your sorority/frat sophomore or junior year, because then house parties become way more of a thing(when you move out of the dorms) and you will have made more social connections. Also, the bar scene is huge here so when you turn 21 then theres a ton of fun stuff for you to go to! Im an engineering student, so academically it was a little challenging at first, but after a few weeks you adjust and get the hang of it, and like I said the professors are awesome and we have a ton of really interesting classes you can take(beer making, tractor driving, star wars analysis, etc.). It also helps to know someone with a car or join a club that takes weekend trips, just because its nice to go to sf, sac, or tahoe sometimes. Anyway I hope this helps, I would definitely consider UC Davis!
