At UCLA, each academic term, or quarter, lasts for only ten weeks. With that said, you'll definitely learn what you're made of when attending this school. Each quarter will pass by very quickly, so you'll be forced to learn how to juggle classwork with extracurricular activities. Furthermore, you'll be brought into a special community of talented people and will learn how to be humble because you'll be surrounded by students that are just as intelligent and hard-working as you are. I definitely learned to be more modest in my first year, and I'm grateful...

    While UCLA is considered by many people to be a great school, I canâ??t say itâ??s been great for me. With such a large student body, itâ??s been difficult to create meaningful connections with other students and my professors. Social life is dominated by Greek life, lectures are interrupted by people more interested in gossiping than listening, and discussion sections are mostly void of meaningful interaction.

    UCLA is a beautiful campus and a great environment to learn in. People take their education very seriously but still make time to have fun. Extracurricular activities are a huge part of the UCLA experience.

    UCLA is an amazing institution that is challenging and yet it is a rewarding experience. The professors here are amazing even though they are challenging and they expect from their students nothing but the very best. UCLA is your best choice!

    What really attracted me to UCLA was their Optimist campaign -- this positive and energetic attitude made me feel like I can really pursue my dreams there. I also love the school spirit that UCLA has. Finally, the weather's awesome and great weather = happy students!

    Attending UCLA has been the best experience of my life, both socially and academically. One of the best things about UCLA is its proximity to so many things, such as Hollywood, the Getty Museum, and Santa Monica. Student life is definitely thriving, with student groups for just about anything you can think of.
