Newly Admitted Students

Welcome to the College of Letters and Science

Have you been admitted? We are excited to welcome you to UC Davis and are looking forward to helping you make the most of your college experience! 

We compiled a list of helpful resources for you to get started. First, make sure you set up your UC Davis Login ID and create your account in the MyAdmissions portal. Most of your pre-enrollment tasks are linked there. 

1. Submit your Statement of Intent to Register (SIR)

Have you decided to attend UC Davis and want to make it official? Be sure to log in to your MyAdmissions portal to submit the Statement of Intent to Register (SIR) before May 1 for first-years, and June 1 for transfer students. You must set up a UC Davis Login ID and password before accessing this site.

Be sure to log in to MyAwards to review your financial aid package. Once you submit your Statement of Intent to Register (SIR), you can begin accepting any awards you may have been offered. You must set up a UC Davis Login ID and password before accessing this site. 

Everything you need to know about financial aid

3. Apply for Housing

After you submit the SIR, you may begin the housing application. It takes about 24 hours after submitting your SIR before you can access the Housing application. Be sure to check out the many residence hall options, as well as the Living-Learning Communities. 

Living-Learning Communities are communities within the residence halls that provide an opportunity for students with similar interests to live in the same hall, or same floor. 

4. Complete Aggie 101

Aggie 101 is the first step in the Orientation process. It is an online experience that takes approximately 1-2 hours to complete. Complete Aggie 101 at your own pace, but you should complete this before Aggie Advising begins, which is late May for freshmen and early June for transfer students.
