<ol>
<li><p>Are you going to decision day on May 13th?
Probably. :slight_smile: </p></li>
<li><p>Are you going to attend the orientation? If yes, are you excited!?
Yes, let’s say after 4 years of studying at community college I AM SOOOO EXCITED! WOOT!!! jogjakdfgjlkajf;adjgsjdgoijaegioujesrgijsrgjsogjs!!! let’s put it that way xD </p></li>
<li><p>Living on campus or not? If so, where at?
No. I’m looking for a house ~10 mins away from campus for my family and I </p></li>
<li><p>Are you planning on changing major/double majoring?
Yes. I applied for Math and will be changing to ECE or CSE :)</p></li>
</ol>

<p>It’s surprising to me the amount of people that actually WANT to go to Davis… Why!?</p>

6

<p>Because its a great school? </p>

<p>It is ranked 39 in the nation for academics (UCSD is only 35) and the campus is great from what I can tell. They also have a football team! lol Ill be so stoked to go to a game or two even if it is not against any of the big teams. </p>

<p>Also will be cool to get a little bit of the “college experience” since Davis is a college town. </p>

<p>Its not on the ocean which is a huge bummer, but other than that I see no real negatives.</p>

7

<p>Lol, I was surprised because there is actually a very small amount of people on this forum that want to go. Not the opposite. </p>

<p>On the other hand, I do agree with you that Davis is a great school. I think people just don’t want the smell cows 24/7. I have not actually been to Davis, but have high hopes for it.</p>

8

<p>^ I’m guessing it is that way since they offer a TAG. =)</p>

<p>seet0o what’s your major btw?</p>

9

<p>I applied as an econ major. Planning on doubling up with polysci once I get in for a quarter.</p>

10

<p>Davis does NOT smell like cows, unless you’re over by where the cows are. I say this from experience because I’ve been there twice, and only smelled the cows when I was by the cow place.</p>

<p>There really aren’t that many. It’s not like you’re in central cali driving through Buttonwillow in the middle of summer or something <em>shudder</em></p>

<p>Not sure what’s worse, that smell or Gilroy during harvest season. XD</p>

<p>I kinda feel bad I’m hung up on UCI because I’ve got friends at UCD that want me there and UCD has sent me a lot of very inviting emails to check out stuff and join their facebook group and stuff XD. Even the letter was much friendlier.</p>

11

<p>I’m planning on going to Davis!

  1. Yep, already registered for decision day.
  2. Yes, not exactly sure when, but I’m a freak about planning course schedules so I can’t wait to register for classes.
  3. Probably living in the SSA (Single Student Apartments) - did the dorm thing at a private university a while ago and would much prefer a legit apartment with my own bedroom & bath.
  4. I’m a Psych major, but thinking about double majoring in Psych & Anthro. I conveniently finished the pre-req’s during general ed so it’ll be easy.</p>
12

<p>here are the Transfer Orientation sessions dates: june 21, 22, 23, 24, 27, 28, 29, 30</p>

<p>hmm i’m not able to sign up for the 29th or 30th yet…</p>

13

<p>I think I signed up for the 22nd. I think you’re allowed to change it as long as it’s before the June 5th. </p>

<p>Also, what happens if we go to Decision Day later? Because I have class until 10, how will I be able to register?</p>

14

<p>^ they might be able to let you in late? it’s a series of different workshops/events going on so it’s flexible. quite similar to the “discover uc davis” day in march it seems.</p>

15

<p>I haven’t made up my mind yet (I’m torn between Davis and LA)</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Are you going to decision day on May 13th?
Yes </p></li>
<li><p>Are you going to attend the orientation? If yes, are you excited!?
If I choose to attend Davis I will attend orientation</p></li>
<li><p>Living on campus or not? If so, where at?
On campus</p></li>
<li><p>Are you planning on changing major/double majoring?
Yes. I got in for Econ and would switch to Applied Math or maybe EE if they would let me.</p></li>
</ol>

16

<p>still deciding between cal and davis (I know, no one really understands why this is even a decision, but I’ve lived in Berkeley and I’m not a fan. Prestige vs. quality of life…)</p>

<ol>
<li>going to decision day</li>
<li>will definitely attend orientation if I decide on Davis</li>
<li>probably off campus, and will just find roommates online</li>
<li>I’m going to stick with managerial econ, might minor in dance</li>
</ol>

17

<p>I got into UCLA but even I’m curious as to what is in Davis. Everything sounds so awesome but I really just like the fact that it’s in northern california. I wish I was able to at least visit here before deciding (obvious choice would be UCLA though). Wish you guys all the best up there! :)</p>

18

<p>Still deciding between LA and Davis, but I’m leaning towards Davis</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Are you going to decision day on May 13th? Nope =[</p></li>
<li><p>Are you going to attend the orientation? If yes, are you excited!? Yes!!!</p></li>
<li><p>Living on campus or not? If so, where at? Nope, living at The Lexington.</p></li>
<li><p>Are you planning on changing major/double majoring? Yep, either one. Whichever I can actually do haha.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>woo wooo. any thoughts on LA versus Davis? I can’t stand the crap I’m getting from people who hear I’ll probably turn down LA</p>

20

<p>I’m going to Davis! Everywhere else hates me lol.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>YES!!</p></li>
<li><p>I don’t know when it is but I want to go.</p></li>
<li><p>I have no idea!! My boyfriends moving with me…soooo either on campus apartment or single… or maybe we should just go off campus, i don’t know!!</p></li>

</ol>

<p>Is there ANY large body of water near by?!?! lol i’m totally going to miss the ocean.</p>
