" Do not judge riverside to be a low grade university. Given that they are a UC, they have great connections and resources to help students grow. Out of all of the UC's, I strongly believe and know that UCR cares for their students. UCR has a a stupendous amount of resources for premed/prehealth, and is a great place for you to build your app and career. "

" The school was great. I enjoyed my time there and the students I made friends with were all of quality. Gym facilities were where I spent the most of my time and the food choices were great. Campus being the largest of the UC schools, it felt like a little town inside the campus. Out side however, wasnt the same. "

" Though often looked down upon as being a lower UC and less desirable, the school has an impressive teaching staff and some incredible students. The campus itself is quite beautiful compared to other colleges in California and the biggest downside is the parking situation at the school. Sometimes I would arrive and there would be zero spots left and I would have to park in one of the "pay by the hour" lots. Other than parking, any student should want to attend school here. The food, campus culture, and the bell tower combine for an amazing university experience for all. "

" This campus is always looking to improve their programs, although there's a great selections of programs existing here. The campus itself is pretty old but there's a lot of vacant land around it that has potentials to develop if they decided to expand. The staffs I've encountered my years there were relatively friendly and helpful. A wide variety of clubs/organizations to join. Overall experience was fun and memorable at this school. "
