No one in DC cares about Davis or Irvine. Please stop.

We do care. The last poster is way off the mark.

I (in Maryland) know someone who applied to Davis. He got in!

There’s one. Sorry, I agree with PP. I guess let’s just spam DCUM with every random school in the country.

Let’s list all the Cal State colleges now too.

Would love to see more California schools rather than the usual suspects.

Great…so go look at the Bay Area threads on This very website. I am sure there are plenty.

The last thing we need is more threads on UVA, UMD, or people’s thoughts on rankings. Cali has some of the best schools in the country without much coverage on here.

Geez. Calm down. If you’re not interested then don’t click on the thread. There’s lots of us here interested. There’s are top 10 public universities!

I was a little surprised when one of DC's good friends went to Davis from MD four years ago, but since then have regularly hear of kids applying. My other DC never considered it, but when he saw the campus really regretted not applying.

Friends DS is in a Berkeley (early acceptance), Davis and Michigan but waitlist at Irvine. The UCs are tough to get into. This kid is stellar.

I grew up in Northern CA and now live in Northern Virginia. I think this is a good call in terms of relative intrastate prestige, and even the locations are similar.

So what does that make Cal Poly?

you are prohibited from posting about UC’s if you call it “Cali.”

I guess it really bothers me as a native Californian (from Davis actually) to see UCs thrown into the obsessive maelstrom of East Coast sweaty college admissions grubbing. UCs should be for Californians.

+1. They’re already hard enough to get into for Californians.

The UC colleges have the advantage of interaction. You can start your academic career at Riverside, a relatively non-selective college and finish your PhD at UCLA. You can also transfer more easily between them. Say you started at UCSB and found it too remote, you could transfer to UCLA without much difficulty.

And I'm not making this stuff up. I live in LA and have kids who will be applying in the Fall, and many friends and acquaintances who attended a variety of the UC colleges.
