Local Atmosphere at University of California - Irvine

A

UCI's Atmopshere

I see UCI as a school who's students are very driven, competitive, and passionate about what they do. Almost everyone is very serious about succeeding, and it is a very inspiring and studious environment to be around.

Although Irvine isn't the most exciting place, it is very safe and beautiful. There are some nice restaurants to try in the area, and it's close to the beach. Irvine is located near many hot spots and cities.

The campus is quiet nice and large. I especially enjoy having Aldrich park in the center, where I can take a breath of fresh air in between classes.

The one downside about this school is that science classes fill up pretty quickly and are competitive to get seats in. Tutoring has been cut back on, and I had to find a private group tutor.

UCI is a great place to go if you want to get involved in the medical field. There are plenty of research opportunities and ways to volunteer.

I also have heard that UCI has one of the top Psychology and Engineering programs.

Overall, I would not choose to go anywhere BUT UCI and I am happy to be going to school here. This school isn't perfect, but it fulfills my needs and is what I am looking for.

Off-Campus Dining at University of California - Irvine

A

Great for Vegetarians

As a vegetarian, I have found a good number of options available to me at the University Town Center. One of the options include the Veggie Grill, which has great vegan food which is healthy and delicious.

Another option I like is Yogurtland which allows you to make your own frozen yogurt creations.

Further off campus, my absolute favorite restuaruant is Native Food Cafe, in Tustin. This is about 10-15 minutes off campus and has great vegan food.

Weather at University of California - Irvine

Nicest Weather Ever

Irvine has pretty mild weather. It rains sometimes and it gets somewhat cold, but as a coast town in Southern California, it has good weather. The temperature is usually between 70 and 90 degrees in the Summer, 40-70 degrees in the winter, and 50-70 degrees in the Spring and Fall. These are in degrees Fahrenheit.
