Why do you love UCI?

UCI offers many opportunities to build experience and memories. In addition to the academic-focused programs offered, many events make UCI so unique, with my favorite being the Petr drops during my 1st year. I’ve met new people and built a community through these events, making this my unique college experience.

How can you be a successful Anteater?

To become a successful Anteater, you must leave your comfort zone and explore new opportunities and experiences. It isn’t easy, and it may feel scary, but putting yourself out there will allow you to experience unforgettable moments of the college experience. Through my jobs, involvements, clubs, and research, I met wonderful classmates, friends, co-workers, and staff.
