BEST CHOICE I COULD HAVE POSSIBLY MADE! UCI is such an up and coming school, getting more prestigious every year. Lots of diversity. Ranked number 1 nationally for low income students, who later become high net worth individuals. Super eco-friendly (first campus with electric busses). People may say the party scene is lame, but I lived on the Newport Beach Peninsula my junior/senior year which is where the bars/party scene is located. And how many college students can literally afford to live on the beach?? It's a once in a lifetime experience! Amazing study abroad program. Great sports. World renowned professors. Free counseling resources, career center, tutoring, disability services. They JUST redid the freshman dorms/dining hall, and they are BEAUTIFUL! Great alumni network upon graduation too! I don't have enough great things to say about UCI.

Our student has enjoyed an active social life (pre COVID), experienced a diverse student body and has incredible internship opportunities. He says the food could be better but there are plenty of other option on campus and nearby. All in a great city to experience. The University?s communication is excellent.

Horribly inefficient staff who have no desire to improve. Hard to get through to anyone. They make excuses rather than admit mistakes. Teachers know their subjects, but are not top notch at teaching. Classes are small so that is good. Basically, I just wish the school cared enough to fix rather than justify problems.

This place is a sub-par diploma mill. It does not prepare students well. At. All. Avoid this For-Profit institution at all costs. I know many people who went here and their lives are in shambles because they decided attend this ?school?. Most have 100k + in debt and are struggling to survive. DO NOT GO HERE.
