Andre Brown
“The advisors in the post-bac were integral to my success in navigating the application cycle. It was a blessing to have access to all of the advisors from the post-bac and different professional eyes on my application making it the best that it could be.”
Monneca Rim
“I heard in other post-bac programs that you barely meet with your advisors, but in this program, I met with mine often. They were very supportive of my goals. Bryelle was basically my advisor and therapist. I met with her often to make sure I was on track for completing the program and during the application process.”
Gabby Rich
"The UC Davis Post-Bac was the backbone of my application. I really would not have known how to navigate applications without the program and its advisors. I would absolutely recommend the UC Davis Post-Bac because of its advisors. They go above and beyond for students."
Lucero Cordero
"So far, I have received 15 interviews and nine acceptances, which has astonished me! I am applying for the third time, and I did not expect this much success. I believe that my success in this cycle is due to the confidence that the UC Davis post-baccalaureate program helped me cultivate. I wholeheartedly recommend the program!"
Francisco Cordero
"I highly recommend it. The test preparation is excellent. The connections you make with professors in touch with medical schools around the state and country are also very useful. Most importantly, the mentorship and guidance you receive from your advisors during this challenging process are incredible. They are with you from your first day of class all the way until you enter through those medical school doors, which is very comforting."
Victoria Odufuwa Nze
"I came out of the program believing in myself. It boosted my confidence, not just in academics, but in anything that I apply myself to. I'm grateful for the grades that I got, but the self-development is priceless—that's really what's going to drive me as I continue on into nursing school and a career.”
Vickie Chaimanont
"The thing I found most valuable about the program was the strong community I formed with my peers, advisors and professors. I felt like everyone was on my side and I had a big team rooting for me."
Rachel Becker
"The UC Davis Post-Bac had the best commitment to helping me evolve as a student and helping me fix my study habits that didn’t work in undergrad. They gave me the tools and the support to best set me up for success as a medical student."
Gabby Lee
"I would recommend the UC Davis Post-Bac because it provides unmatched support and opportunities. The compassion from the program advisors and staff, as well as the expert resources, cannot be found elsewhere."
