what I wish I knew about college...THE TRUTH ABOUT UCLA

[@kevinsantiago878]

I go to UCLA and am about to be a third year this fall. Ok so first, enrollment is fucking hell everyone wants the same classes. Second, the classes are really hard but that also depends on your major. Third, Even though this school is hard and stressful I have never been more happy than when I live at UCLA. It is so fun and one of the best experiences I've ever had. I should add though that I am very social and love meeting people but I believe everyone meets their perfect friends at this school.

Kevin, I'm going to guess that you're a social science major, based off of what you stated, and I'm going to say you're a sociology major. I x'd out engineering and bio sciences because you would have listed it first as far as difficulty, and you're extremely social, which most students at UCLA are, but your major's not holding you back on the social scene.

[@QwerAsdf-vs8pz]

I’m really worried that maybe UCLA isn’t the right fit for me. I mean I live pretty close to campus. And I already have my academics planned out leading to eventually transferring to UCLA. But I have social anxiety, and UCLA is a HUGE school. I heard it’s easy to get lost in the sea of students, and that you don’t always feel like you belong. Especially as a transfer, I heard it’s hard to make friends, because everybody’s already made friends and is too busy studying. If it’s overly crowded and you’re not very good with socializing like me, I feel like that’s a recipe for disaster. I don’t want to end up finally getting in...just to feel alone and isolated.

[@lifeofmeili]

that's a totally valid concern! yes UCLA is definitely a large school, but I think it really depends on how involved you get. Clubs/organizations are a great way to meet people and make the big campus feel more personal. Even though there are a ton of students, I feel like I've found my "home" within UCLA and honestly I love the large student population! But at the end of the day it's important to choose what's best for you :)

[@lifeofmeili]

also even though I'm not a transfer student, I have many friends who are and they say they felt so welcomed when they joined! I'm actually planning on filming a Q&A video with some transfer students, so if you have any particular questions lmk what you'd be interested in hearing about :)

[@QwerAsdf-vs8pz]

@@lifeofmeili Hey thanks for your reply, I didn’t get the notification until just now. Yeah, I’ve heard that people who are extroverts really enjoy the social atmosphere of UCLA, some people though say it can feel a bit cold and distant. You’re right though, it depends on how you choose to involve yourself on campus and with other students. However, I’ve heard that students at UCLA are very competitive, so I don’t know how that fits into the social atmosphere. Also, you know the TAP (Transfer Alliance Program)? Berkeley mentions on their website that around 80% of TAP participants get admitted there. I reached out to somebody in admissions at UCLA, who was listed as a source to answer any questions you might have....and she’s opened my email but hasn’t responded :(

[@dotjai330]

remember you're there for school, not a social event to make friends. Focus on why your there. College is your job to learn what you want to do and it's your job training to be prepared after graduation. You will have plenty of time to make friends and socialize after school is done.

so sad, i wanted to go to ucla so badly for my whole life. it was the best school for me and the most perfect fit, from hustle culture to socal to la vibes to a school spirit I saw myself already adopting and graduating with to carry for the rest of my life. I couldn't see myself anywhere else as an artist, rising songwriter and entertainment major. but then I never got into ucla. I got into Berkeley instead, and now I have to go there because there are no other schools I got into. im actually so devestated, I felt like I was supposed to go to ucla this whole time and now im so bummed. idk what to do, I think ill just transfer later

UCLA is definitely one of my top 3 picks Edit: I guess I’m lucky I decided to get an eboard for Black Friday since you mentioned the walking distance. I will definitely struggle in college though since I’m taking an architecture major for my parent’s business. Architecture courses are extremely difficult and competitive from what I heard and to make it worse, I’m gonna try to a second major if possible for me since I also want to try out computer science and business. Might be though but definitely no impossible and it will be worth it in my opinion.

I am scared that if I do not get a concept I will be left behind because like you said it is very fast paced, TAs are hit/miss, and office hours are not that reliable because you won't get special attention. With that in mind I will attend UCLA. I would rather fail trying in UCLA than take the easy route." Nothing great comes easy, and nothing easy can ever equate to greatness" -Edmond Mbaka

Goodluck with everything!!

[@mo3531]

congrats!! i might be going to ucla as well :) i've been looking into it and I asked several people who go to UCLA and who are upperclassmen/graduates (and hopefully this reassures you) but they told me even though class can be big and overwhelming, it never really hindered their ability to learn and they eventually got used to the quarter system (that insight came from someone who was an econ major and now is going to law school)

If you go to big school. Be ready to do everything on your own with less help. You don’t get the same support or 1:1 tutor like smaller campus. UCLA is my daughter dream school.

While in high school start applying for scholarships and grants. Can your parents fund your education? Did they save or have a 529 plan.

I wouldn't say it's "better" or "worse", because there are pros and cons to both! Honestly, I wouldn't choose a school based on whether they have a semester or quarter system, because the pros/cons of each balance each other out. Instead, I'd recommend focusing on comparing which program is stronger!

whats rushing exactly？

[@lifeofmeili]

it means rushing for a sorority! It's also known as recruitment. It's the process of joining a sorority

UCM rushing or greek life from fraternity and sorority is nothing like older schools. I have a daughter in KKG and I see nothing wild or even drinking here.

Hey quick question you were talking about how the washing machines are really sucky!! So I was wondering if you would for example buy a powerful cleaning detergent for your clothes instead would that make it work better or is it the actual machine itself overall

[@lifeofmeili]

it's the actual machine overall :( I mean it works just not the best
