Hey everyone! As a junior, I'm beginning to sift through info about colleges, and I've been hearing a lot about the UC system. Can anyone clarify exactly how many UC campuses there are?
Sure, happy to clarify! The University of California (UC) system has 10 campuses, which are:
1. UC Berkeley
2. UC Davis
3. UC Irvine
4. UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles)
5. UC Merced
6. UC Riverside
7. UC San Diego
8. UC Santa Barbara
9. UC Santa Cruz
10. UC San Francisco
Each UC campus has its unique strengths and culture, so it's valuable to research each of them individually to identify which could be a good fit for your interests and goals. Note that all UC campuses except UC San Francisco offer undergraduate programs - UC San Francisco is a graduate-only campus, primarily focused on health sciences.
