About the Event

Newly admitted first-year international UC Davis students and their parents, families and supporters are invited to join us virtually to learn more about how new international students get ahead of their requirements and adjust to life with Summer Start. 

Summer Start is a six-week academic and cultural program for incoming first-year international students. This is the only program that offers students the opportunity to get settled, start earning credit toward their degrees, make friends, and receive guided exploration in and around Davis and Northern California before the fall quarter even begins.

Join Dawn Takaoglu, director of the Summer Start Program, for this informational session while she provides more details, including our exclusive airport pick-up and how registration allows you to receive your I-20 early, and answers your questions.
