Does UC Davis have supplemental essay prompts beyond the UC Personal Insight Questions?
I’m a junior starting my college list and I’m getting confused because some schools have their own extra essays on top of the main application. I’m trying to figure out whether UC Davis asks for any separate supplemental essays, or if it just uses the standard UC Personal Insight Questions.

UC Davis does not have separate school-specific supplemental essays in the standard freshman application. If you apply through the University of California application, you will respond only to the UC Personal Insight Questions, which are shared across all UC campuses.
That means you do not need to write extra essays just for UC Davis the way you would for some private colleges or certain public universities.
The main exception is if a program later requests additional information after you apply, which can happen in limited cases, but that is not part of the regular initial application. For most applicants, there are no extra Davis-only essay prompts.
