Get Started

Wherever you’re at in your degree journey, we want to support you in achieving your goal. Depending on your situation, the steps and resources below can help you get there:

I am a former UC Davis student who needs support.

  • Readmission may be possible and is different than the Admissions process
  • We offer $500 towards UC Davis Open Campus and Summer Session courses (Limited online offerings)
  • We can help you navigate your options
  • Schedule an appointment today with Tracy Diesslin or Miriam Chavez (bilingual—English/Spanish)

 

I took community college coursework with the intent to transfer to a 4-year institution, and I want to attend UC Davis.

 

I am a California resident with some college, but no degree, interested in professional certificates or other ways to advance my career.

  • Schedule a 1:1 advising appointment with an academic advisor to discuss your situation and goals (Tracy Diesslin or Miriam Chavez, bilingual—English/Spanish)
  • Receive a $500 discount towards a certificate program at UC Davis
  • Note that federal financial aid is not available to students seeking a professional certificate

 

I am close to graduating from another UC or have senior standing at another institution.

  • It is usually advised to connect with your previous institution to discuss pathways for reentry/readmission. Meeting with your advising team, even your major advisor if you don’t know where to get started, is a good place to begin.
  • UC Davis does not consider applications for senior-level transfers. You may have accumulated a lot of units at another school and are not eligible to transfer. That doesn’t mean you don’t have options, but connecting with your advising team is helpful.
  • If you have attempted to contact your previous university/college and need support, feel free to schedule a 1:1 advising appointment with an academic advisor.
