University of California-Los Angeles Top Questions

I consider the best thing about my school to be its resources. All over campus there are educational workshops, tutors, and counseling assistants that are able to help you plan your future the way that you want to. A lot of these resources provide both a valuable place to start, and a path to follow to achieve success as quickly as possible. I have all the help I need to succeed, and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity that UCLA has provided me with.

The best thing about my school is that it has a lot of academic resources for students to transition from high school to college successfully. I am proud that there is extensive effort to help students academically.

The campus enviourment, proud to be here so I am eager to learn.

The ability to explore what you are interested in and discover what you like to de. That allows one to find out what they want to pursure in life.

We are academically driven but also know how to party.

The immensity of opportunities availible

The environment is very competitive at UCLA, but this gives students the push and motivation to do their best. The food on the residential Hill is really all that students make it to be too. It's definitely not the high school cafeteria food that people imagine, and the meal plan swipe system is easy to use.

The best thing about UCLA is that it resides at the centre of Los Angeles, where diverse cultures intersect and create a learning and cultural environment that suits everyone. I've been exposed to different cultures by my classmates from all over the world. In addition, Los Angeles accumulates the world's most advanced technology and ideas; there are tremendous amount of opportunities available for a UCLA bruin to make a head start in his/her future career.

UCLA hosts an unimaginable variety of extracurricular activities that always cater to your personal hobbies! Its unique location in LA allows students to persue so many different interests. For example, I can snowboard down Big Bear Mountain with the Board club, take surfing lessons through the Wooden Center, backpack across San Bernadino Mountains with SNAP, take a day trip to a medical clinic in Mexico, or tutor elementary kids in downtown Los Angeles. Boredom will become a foreign word once you put yourself out there, maximizing exposure to the academic, sport, outdoor, performing art, or community service activities.

The best aspect about UCLA is the flexibility and helpfulness students receive from the academic administration. The school offers a vast variety of majors that enables students to explore their passion. It is also very convenient with the school's online systems that let students choose and exchage classes with all the appropriate criteria within a reasonable time period. UCLA sets up its academic curriculum to provide a constant aid to its students and create a path to success.

All the opportunities available, particularly to undergraduate students like myself. Living in the dorm has huge advantages, because it is ORL's job to inform residents about upcoming events. For that reason, there is a lot of opportunity for networking (for example, with doctors or other professionals in a field) and opportunities to learn and keep up with classes. Plus, the people are absolutely wonderful, I love everybody living on my floor so much! They made the transition to college a much more bearable thing.

There is a lot of school spirit and a strong connection with alumni that is fun and can be useful.

There are some really great professors that teach you not only about academics but about life. The variety of people means UCLA never gets boring. The scenery is beautiful, especially at dusk. And the food is delicious!

The best thing about my school is the scenery. Each building has a story and separate beauty to it. The buildings seem as if they weren’t just built but were sculpted in which every detail was considered so that it could add to the story. That story culminates to the history of UCLA: the tradition, legacy, expectations of excellence, and hope that if we do are best we can succeed in our endeavors.

I just absolutely love my campus! There are so many things that I could write down, but it wouldn't enough to fully describe my experience learning at the great university that has given such an amazing opportunity. I'm currently studying to be a nurse at the UCLA School of Nursing, and have only come to love the program more every year. The professors are very knowledgable, the students are diverse, the campus is beautiful, motivation is around every corner, and my dream is within reach!

The best thing about UCLA is the pride. Never have a been to a place where everyone is so proud of where they are. It really creates an environment of acceptance and makes you strive to live up to the standards that make everyone there so proud.

I think my school's medical department really sets it apart from any other University of California! The Ronald Reagan Medical Center provides countless opportunities for research and experience, and it incorporates medical practices from not only the west, but all around the world. UCLA truly is the place to be for someone studying medicine. PLUS, it's located in the nation's heart of film industry!!

The diversity-- not only because it leads to a richer college experience but because it, in my view, respresents the diversity of the entire state of California. Both draw in people from around the world, and I'm a strong believer in cosmopolitanism.

diversity. There isnt as much as there is claimed to be but it is prevelent. anyone can find their our niche

The best thing is definitely that amount of love virtually every student has for this school. I have yet to meet anyone who does not like UCLA. Because of that, you generally meet so many amazing and passionate people and their passion rubs off on you. The sun shines brighter and school work is more bearable when you can share it with a bunch of other people who love the school as much as you do.
