OUR 6TH ANNUAL GIVING DAY WAS A SUCCESS! IF YOU MISSED THE OPPORTUNITY TO PARTICIPATE BUT WOULD LIKE TO SUPPORT UCI, YOU CAN STILL GIVE BY CLICKING HERE

Today is an exciting opportunity for Anteaters to celebrate our winning traditions and invest in our future. For over 50 years, UCI student-athletes have proudly represented their university. Our Anteater student-athletes have won 28 National Championships and 92 Conference Championships, and consist of 565 All-American honorees, 58 Olympians and over 4,000 Scholar-Athletes. As we strive to build upon these accomplishments, it is our goal to elevate UC Irvine Athletics to further national prominence.
