The Humanities side of campus was a wonderful place to learn soft skills that you just don't have with other majors. My critical thinking and creativity really blossomed because of the school and I felt like a confident candidate once I entered the job market. The school may not excel at having a prominent social scene but its very easy to find many groups with varied interests and create your own network, of parties, and friends without being too stuck to one group.

UC Irvine is a wonderful university. I have had some really inspirational professors, insightful classes, and I feel academically competitive enough to apply to the Ph.D program at UCI. The only bad part about UCI is that some professors are not responsive and they are very hard to get letters of recommendation from.

Not so bright
The campus is absolutely beautiful and the faculty are all very intelligent and helpful. However, the people are very cliquey and closed. This is because of the stereotype that Asians mostly stick within their own cliques. As an Asian American, it was far easier getting along with non-Asian students than it was getting along with the Asian ones. You're consistently excluded and it's difficult to make friends sometimes.
