Having only been in existence since 1965, UC Irvine has rapidly built a solid reputation for academic excellence and cutting-edge research, even being named a “Public Ivy” institution in 2001. As one of the most selective universities in the state, the scholarly climate is exceptional, although the rigorous coursework is balanced out by a fun campus atmosphere. Huge annual events like the world record attempts at the beginning of the school year, the Shocktoberfest concert, and the Soulstice talent show drive a lively campus culture; other popular events like midterm/finals week puppy days and UCI Symphony Orchestra performances ensure that there’s always something fun to check out around the UC Irvine community.
The region’s famous beaches and mountains are only a few minutes away by car, and lush green spaces like Mason Park provide tranquil settings for quiet downtime. The campus is fairly spread out, so you’ll want to consider where you’ll be spending most of your time when you select an apartment: The neighborhoods on the west end are closest to the University Research Park and the Department of Chemistry, while the east side will put you closer to the School of Law and the administration and classroom buildings surrounding Aldrich Park.
