Comparative findings for the other undergraduate UC campuses are also provided. Attention was directed to changes in interests and degree/career aspirations, degree of preparedness for academic studies, and students' suggestions for changing support services. Findings include the following: 92 percent of students would recommend UC Davis to a friend; the most demanding aspect of the first few months at UC Davis was the difficult coursework; 9 out of 10 students were satisfied with the friendliness of other students, the library facilities, and the opportunity to participate in both ethnic/cultural events and sports; 60 percent of new students were satisfied with relationships with faculty members or average class sizes; 60 percent of new students planned to attain a postgraduate degree; and while about four out of five students had a specific career plan when they entered UC Davis in the fall, by spring 28 percent had changed their career goals. Appendices include a student questionnaire. (SW)
