The Office of Student Education and Learning Resources provides academic enhancement and support services to medical students and pre-medical students. Note that this program is open only to accepted medical students who intend to enroll in UC Davis. Medical students are assigned a class advisor and clinical mentor. UC Davis medical students generally do well with board examinations and consistently score above the national average in each subject area. The nine-month preparation course focuses on examination content, preparation, testing and relaxation.
Preparation includes individual and group evaluation and regular practice examinations.
Most of the groups are conveniently arranged and led by peer medical students. Students with learning or other disabilities are provided with accommodations according to the documentations recommended for their learning. The mission of the Office of Minority Affairs is to ensure diversity in medicine for the state of California. This mission includes efforts to diversify both the student body and the faculty of the school of medicine. Finally, this office is active in efforts to educate medical students and faculty in effective cross-cultural communication in medical settings.
