The time has come, prospective Aggies!

Earlier today (September 17), UC Davis Graduate Studies officially launched the online graduate application for the 2020-2021 academic year.

Brittani Orona is one of twenty environmental scholars chosen as 2019 recipients of the Switzer Environmental Fellowship, a program of the Robert and Patricia Switzer Foundation.  The Foundation identifies, supports and nurtures emerging environmental leaders through academic funding, leadership training and preparation for policy impact.  The Switzer Fellowship Program recognizes the achievements of environmental leaders and their potential to drive positive change. 

When UCPath goes live this fall, students who are hired at 43.75 percent time or more for at least 3 months will be eligible to opt for a Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (DepCare FSA).

If you’re not familiar with it, the DepCare FSA is used to pay for eligible caregiving expenses for your children up to age 13 or an eligible adult dependent. You set aside money for your DepCare FSA from your paycheck on a pre-tex basis and use those funds to pay for eligible DepCare expenses. Here are some details on how the plan works.
