University of California-Los Angeles Top Questions

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about University of California-Los Angeles?

Mariah

I brag about out athletic teams. Im a walk-on on the Track and Field team and being part of the athletic family is wonderful and not everyone has the chance to be a part of that type of family. UCLA is the first to reach 100 NCAA championships and its an honor to be able to be apart of that. All of out athletic teams are great and the athletes themselves are wonderful people to be around and are definetly worth bragging about.

There are many things I brag about; UCLA is located between Westwood, Brentwood, Beverly Hills, and Hollywood, giving it a prime location for activities on the weekend. I can also take the city bus for $.25 to Santa Monica, 15 minutes away, to go to the beach. I also tell them that UCLA is known for its superior academics and I pride myself for being part of the 2{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} out of state students admitted each year.

Chris

I brag about the level of athletics at our school as well as the high level of academics required to get here.

Kevin

I love how UCLA is integrated with the greater Los Angeles community. While the academic opportunities in the classroom are phenomenal, UCLA offers students the chance to learn from experience in the surrounding city. With a well-developed community service network, organized trips to cultural hot spots, and a superb location in West Los Angeles, students are encouraged to take advantage of everything this city has to offer. Some of the most important life lessons I've learned at UCLA were from experiences in the city.

Pablo

We have one of the best dorm food in the nation, and our school has more than 100 NCAA championships.

Naseem

I tell people about the quality of our courses and professors. The different groups and events available here are also amazing.

Brittany

I like my friends to know that affirmative action had nothing to do with me being accepted to UCLA. I stress the fact that I stepped up to the plate and competed for a chance to be here just like all the other applicants. I brag about being competent enough to make it to UCLA with the little help I recieved from my high school officials.

There is a beautiful botanical garden near north campus where the city's buildings are entirely covered by greenery.

There is a lot of opportunities to meet quality people and socialize. Also, since it is such a recognized school, there are a lot of cool exclusive events that take place on campus.
