Department of Animal Science, UC Davis
The Department of Animal Science's Admitted Student Program, established in 1995, is a tool to recruit prospective students who have been admitted to UC Davis in one of our department majors but who have not yet made a final decision to come to the campus.
The two-hour program consists of presentations about the department and campus by the master advisors and advising associate and a tour of some of our animal facilities. Time is provided for prospective students and their parents to interact with faculty in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.
In early spring of l 996, the department sent out invitations to 265 admitted students. Twelve faculty members, five undergraduate students and two staff members offered the program eight times between April 4 and 19 to 60 students and their parents (about 150 people total).
Fifty of the participating students (83%) subsequently enrolled in one of the Animal Science majors. This compares with about a 50% enrollment rate of admitted students (not participating in this program) in previous years.
