The information on this page is for international students
only. As new information and procedures become available or are
instituted, they will be listed here.
The UC Davis Young Scholars Program accepts applications from any
high achieving student who will be sixteen years of age by the
first day of the summer program but not eighteen years of age by
the last day of the program regardless of home country. The
application process for international students is identical to
the process for all other students with the additional
requirement that the international student must attach official
verification of English language fluency to their application.
This verification can be TESOL exam results or, if the student is
from an English speaking country, a certified letter from a
school official verifying that the student has sufficient English
language skills to be successful in a rigorous academic
program.
