University of California-Merced Top Questions

The small class sizes. The largest lecture hall we have seats about 360* people and the discussions only have about 20* people in them.

The internet in the dorm is very fast and usually stays up despite the amount of people using it concurrently.

The University of California Merced is in a very secluded area which allows students to focus primarily on academics. As a result of the school's location being on the outskirts of town, it provides safer enviroment for students.

I probably brag about how I get to attend this university that has so many opportunities avaialable. How the campus has many jobs available also that I am able to get to school and not have to worry about traffic.

What I brag about the most would be that UC Merced is that everything there is new so there is so many opportunities for current and prospective students, including founding their own organizations.

That it has small class sizes and room for students to get involved and start their own programs.

The school is very small compared to any other U.C. Our professors are very accessible to everyone and the small size makes for small classes where the professor can focus on each individually.

There is not sunny in our school and our school is very big.

That Michelle Obama was our keynote speaker and that the educational experience is so much different that what you would expect to get from an already developed university. This is a growing school with so many opportunities that you would not find on big campuses.

I brag the most about the location because although this is not a big city and surrounded by mostly rural area, it is only 2 hours away from San Francisco, only an hour from the beautiful eastern corrider of California, Yosemite. I grew up in the city my entire life so I appreciated the nature that UCMERCEd provides; even the campus is full of wildlife, where people most frequently see rabbits and raccoons but it is not uncommon to spot a Bobcat in the later evening. The environment provides me with a unique serenity to focus on my studies.
