UC Irvine is a relatively young school within the UC system. It is the fourth-ranked or fifth-ranked campus in the system, after Berkeley, UCLA, UCSD, or UC Davis. UC Irvine lacks a football team and is a commuter campus by nature, meaning a conspicuous deficiency in college spirits. A majority of students are Asians, particularly Asians who got rejected by Berkeley, UCLA, and UCSD. Alumni network on campus is virtually non-existent. While UCI may be trying to bolster their academic reputation, students generally hold UCI in low regard compared to the big-name campuses in the system like UCLA and Berkeley.
