OUR UNCOMMON COMMITMENT TO YOUR LIFELONG SUCCESS
These days it takes more than just graduating from college to be on a path to your most successful life. Many student-athletes across the country find themselves behind their peers because they've falsely assumed that simply graduating means that they are all set for the future. Nobody at their school advised them that just graduating isn't enough, and that they needed to use their college years to develop passions and gain real-world experience. They end up going back home to live with their parents to "figure things out", sometimes taking years.
At UC Davis, we are uncommonly committed to helping you launch successfully into a great job or graduate school after graduation. This means that after sports end, whenever that might be, you're crushing it and living your best life in a cool place as a thriving young professional. Even if you play pro sports for a while after college, we'll make sure you're connected for what comes next after your career ends.
We've built a system specifically for student-athletes that helps you figure out what you're passionate about, learn about what "real jobs" are out there, and helps you get the inside track on these great opportunities.
It's called the Aggie EVO System, and you won't find anything like it at other schools.

THE AGGIE EVO SYSTEM
The Aggie EVO System ("EVO" is shorthand for your "evolution" during college) is an important part of your experience as a student-athlete at UC Davis - just like going to lift, going to class, or getting treatment.
It focuses on four key things to help you prepare for future success:
SKILLS that will make you really valuable: self awareness, emotional intelligence, leadership, teamwork, cultural competence.
KNOWLEDGE of what careers and paths are out there, what your interests are, and how you get there.
OPPORTUNITIES to get awesome internships and jobs through a powerful network of Aggie alums. You'll attend recruiting events and visit cool companies with us in San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and Sacramento.
TOOLS that you need to secure these opportunities. You'll get help with your resumes and cover letters, LinkedIn profile, interviewing skills, business cards, professional headshots, and other important things.
