UC DAvis Campus question~

Applying to College
1

ok…i am kinda convinced that DAvis is better now…
but i have one question still…
i heard that DAvis is the largest campus of all UCs…it’s like 5200 acres
but then…i want to know is it too big that it’s inconvenient?
like do you really need a bike or a car?
and is it like…when you walk on the campus…you barely see any people cuz the campus is too big?

<p>you will need a bike to get frm class to class, and UC Davis is the 3rd biggest UC enrollment wise so you'll see people everywhere while on campus.</p>

<p>The core campus where classes are held isn't 5200 acres, The university owns a lot of farmland and undeveloped stuff that gets counted in the total land area.
The core campus is still fairly large but if you have a bike it takes less than 5 minutes to get from the one side to another. You'll see tons of people going between classes it can be a bit of a pain to dodge all the pedestrians when you're biking.</p>

<p>ohhhh ...bjwbell~~thanks
that makes me less worried..if i go there...lol
so bike is not needed~</p>

<p>Davis has the highest number of bicycles per capita than any city. You'll probably want one to get around campus.</p>

<p>I would get a bike, you don't have to have one but it's so much faster for getting between classes that aren't close together.</p>

<p>You will definitely want/need a bike at Davis. Pretty much every student there rides a bike at least some of the time. The campus and the whole town for that matter is set up for bikes. If you show up without a bike, you will be buying one within the first week or two.</p>

<p>How about cars? </p>

<p>I'm not too stringent on riding on the trams/buses provided at Davis. But I have relatives up in Oakland that I'd like to visit regularly, especially the fact that there is a church that I specifically like to attend to. And my family lives in S. California, and I'd rather drive down to visit them myself. Is there a way around for Freshmans to bring their cars?</p>
