Prospective Freshmen: UC Eligibility and UC Davis Admission Criteria
To ensure that our students are ready to succeed at UC Davis, we require specific academic preparation. But first, applicants should meet UC eligibility requirements. If you're not a California resident, you must meet additional non-resident eligibility requirements. Keep in mind that achieving UC eligibility guarantees your admission at a UC campus, but it does not guarantee that you will be admitted to UC Davis or other selective campuses.
Next, we thoroughly review all applications and score them based on UC Davis-specific admission criteria as part of our Comprehensive Review process. You can view the exam scores and GPA of our admitted students, who generally exceeded UC eligibility criteria.
Watch the fall 2010 freshman admission presentation to learn more about the UC Davis admission process.
Will you be the first generation of your family to attend a four-year college? UC Davis and other UC campuses offer a number of programs to help you stay on the right track to college eligibility. We also provide support after you enroll.
UC Davis requires that you report ALL coursework completed in the U.S. or abroad. Find out how to meet freshman admission requirements with your foreign education.
Has your academic career taken the "road less traveled"? If you're a home schooled student or a student at an unapproved high school, or if you've skipped or repeated a year of high school or plan to graduate early, find out how our eligibility requirements apply to your situation. |
