UCLA’s Get College Ready! How to be a Competitive Applicant program offers a unique opportunity for students and their parents/guardians to visit our campus and gain direct information and insights into the college admission process. This free event for 8th-11th graders will feature workshops on California’s four systems of higher education, UC Admissions, paying for college, and student life. Space is limited. RSVP is required.

Participants will learn what it takes to be a competitive applicant to UCLA and the UC system. This program focuses on the importance of higher education and presents students with a preview to the collegiate experience. The weekend will include workshops, presentations, and campus tours. Participants will live in the UCLA residence halls, giving students the full UCLA campus experience.

UCLA Strategic Partnerships & Community Engagement (SPCE) and the UCLA Black Alumni Association (UBAA) invite participants to visit the UCLA campus to learn more about completing the UC Application and undergraduate admission to UCLA.

At Let’s Make It Personal, participants gained insight on ways to incorporate influential activities and life events into your application. The event also provided support and information to students impacted by wildfires. The program featured an admission presentation, student panel, financial aid overview and resource fair.
