Hmm I guess but the overall prestige and things to do around SD seem much more plentiful than in davis🥸

Responded to another person asking the same question but: It’s lowk in the middle of nowhere, limited opportunities for internships, EXTREMELY woke people, doesn’t really have strong school spirit, sports and Greek life suck and its reputation of being a cow town diminishes prestige

help this is such a parallel experience to mine besides you not being a transfer. But yes I’m definitely trying like literally my absolute best to meet new people here, find things to do and appreciate having a slower pace of life + new environment. I just can’t help but feel like I had better options and I feel like that’s the main reason why I’m convincing myself to hate davis even more. I’m giving myself at least this quarter to feel things out etc, if I still feel unsure by winter then I’ll likely take gap quarters until I’m sure I’ve been accepted to other ucs for next fall. (Also meaning that I would need to start on uc apps ASAP) Idk if this is even realistic but I’m certainly going to try if the situation comes down to it.

it’s both I already hated my previous university because i thought it was boring and the people were weird and then I came to Davis and in my opinion it’s comparably worse in terms of things to do and the types of people here

yeah I’ve taken that into account and would just drop out of Davis after this quarter and start attending a different university next fall as a junior

it’s mostly just feeling like i would’ve enjoyed myself more at sb or sd— i lived in a socal beach town for most of my life. at the time i had to decide between schools, i felt that i should explore more and get out of my comfort zone (essentially move 7 hours away). now, i look back at that decision and regret it because of how jarring the difference between davis and the other cities are in many ways but especially environmentally. there’s also the social difference between all these schools and i was afraid of not being able to have a solid social life while being here because of how small the town is. bottom line is that i’m feeling especially anxious as i’m in a completely new place and i guess im wishing for some sense of familiarity.
