People would are love there majors

UCI would be an ideal school for somebody who wants to be a Psychology and Social Behavior major because all other UCs only offer Psychology and Cognitive Sciences. I am interested not only in research, but psychology in a social aspect and how we affect the people around us and vice versa.

Someone who attends this school should be willing to devote themselves to school. Although there is a lot of fun to be had, the competition for the highest grade makes school work the number one priority. The frat parties are fun, but only in moderation.

Someone who is NOT looking for school spirit, shared ethnicity is what brings people together in this school. We also have a lot of "go green" people and those who want to help other countries.

Any kind of person could find some niche to fill at UCI. People are much more friendly here than the other schools I've toured. Anyone who has a love of scenery and landscape would appreciate the many trees and beautifully designed pieces of architecture around the school. I know from a personal standpoint that humanities majors would fit right in - there are a lot of us, and it's easy to find someone that is able to talk about the same things that you are learning, or might provide some insight to help with homework or some such.

Any kind of person! Everyone is so different and love differences in others!

Someone who is open-minded and a hard worker with goals oriented around research should attend this school.
