[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is way easier to get admitted as an out of state or international student. UC’s charge more for out of state and international students (they pay the same higher non-CAA price). For out of state students it is about 60%.

For many out of state and international students, Davis is a fantastic college town. It is safe and you absolutely do not need a car because it is flat, it doesn’t snow, and it literally has the best bicycle path system of any college in the US. There are over 100 miles of bicycle paths in the city of Davis with a majority separated from the road. And the speed limit for cars is max 25 to 35 mph. [/quote]
Is student housing expensive? Thanks.[/quote]

On campus is around the same at most UC's. However, after freshman year, many students at UC's live off campus. When you look at the  Davis is by far the cheapest for off campus housing. The median house in each UC city

UCSD La Jolla  2.4 million.  -      average price to rent a two bedroom apartment    $3600 a month
UCSB Goleta/S.B 1.8-2 million.   average price to rent a two bedroom apartment.    $3650 a month
UCLA Westwood  1.9 million           average price to rent a two bedroom apartment  $ 4200 a month
Santa Cruz 1.4 million.                 average price to rent a two bedroom apartment.    $4200 a month
Berkeley 1. 3 million.                     average price to rent a two bedroom apartment.   $3150 a month
Davis around 900,000                   average price to rent a two bedroom apartment.    $2350 a month

On campus housing for the second year if you can get it in a student apartment for  UC Davis (The Green apartments) with having your own bedroom in a 2 bedroom or 4 bedroom shared apartment is $15,888 a year.

At some of the other UC's it can be hard to get your own bedroom in a shared on campus apartment your second year.

Not sure it is worth the out of state tuition, but for in-state I think it is. My son really is enjoying freshman year there.

When I went to visit with his younger sibling we rented bikes for a couple of days and it was really fun riding all over campus and the town. I have never seen so many people riding bikes in my life. Most of the students looked friendly and happy. I really liked that even riding around at 10 or 11 pm at night there were a lot of students out and about.
