It is that time of year!

Many of you are preparing your college applications.  Understandably, there are questions, doubts, and concerns that come along with process.  However, in the next few weeks your applications will be complete and submitted.  Then you have the remaining academic year to concentrate on your studies and enjoy school as you await decisions in the Spring.  We encourage you not to stress too much over the process.  We look forward to receiving the thousands of applications.  This is an exciting and busy time of year for us as well.  In the mean time, check out why some current students choose UCLA.

Why did you choose to go to UCLA?

• It was my dream school.
• It was the best school my parents were allowing me to go to.
• It's my dream school, what better place to study than LA for Chicana/o Studies major and the prestige and esteemed professors.
• It was the best school that I go into.  Had sports and academics and would open up the most networks.
• The size of the campus brings so much variety and opportunity.
• Closer to home and family.  I loved the campus and all the resources UCLA offers its students to become successful Bruins.
• I like the location.  It's far away for me to be independents form my parents but close enough to home to drive down to when I'm homesick.
• The environment.
• It would help me achieve my goals in life and career.
• Berkeley turned me down!
• Feel in love with campus and diversity.
• It's a good school with a good reputation.
• Best school I got into.
• My father and I have always like this school. It was a personal mission of mine to be a student here.
• Nice campus, different opportunities.
• Prestigious school close to home, but still far enough away from family.
• The strength of their programs. The enthusiasm and participation of students in on-campus activities as well as the location.
• For many reasons.  Primarily, the fact that it lies within the LA metropolis. Not too far from home and a well respected academic program in any study.  The school offered my particular major with a great program to develop my interests.
• Raza day persuaded me over UC Berkeley and USC.
