Learn how to join ETS, what activities and field trips we offer, and what it means to be an ETS student.
The UC Davis Educational Talent Search program will help you identify your strengths and develop your future goals. We help 1000 students each year from communities in Yolo, Sacramento and Solano Counties.
With our help, you will complete an educational assessment and an educational plan that will prepare you to succeed in your educational goals. You will be encouraged to do well in all your classes, earning a C or better in each class. By the end of the year, you will discuss and be encouraged to enroll in academic courses that will prepare you for college. ETS will also help you understand the college preparation process, develop study skills and begin to explore career possibilities. When you apply to colleges as a senior, ETS will help you with the college application process and assist you with applying for financial aid.
If you consistently attend ETS academic workshops you will be invited to special field trips to UC Davis and other Northern California universities. Events include Preview Day, college visits, student leadership conferences and college fairs.
