A post was merged into an existing topic: UC Irvine Freshman Class of 2027 Waitlist/Appeal Thread

I hope it’s ok to ask this question here, but please move it if not.

If UCD is collaborative, what is UCI like? And does the dept matter in terms of the class size and access to professors? They have several colleges unlike the usual big ones like L and S or engineering. So it would seem that the number of students would be divided up among so many depts. Just trying to get a sense of what to expect.

The colleges at UCI are not residential colleges (like UCSD or UCSC). They are a means for dividing up academic majors.
