i graduated four years ago and looking at this video again i gotta say UCLA truly has given me all those things in this video. This is great school. Once a bruin always a bruin. very proud.
I’m 15 years old, from Iraq, studying medicine in ucla is my dream ! Im improving my English and saving money so I could be there when I finish high school, maybe one day .. 🇮🇶🇺🇸🖤🖤🖤
+shaghayegh akhbari mee to I took a field trip in elementary school so cool and I hope I will get accepted to ucla right now while I am typing this I am about to go to middle school wich means I only need a few more years until my dream University 😍😍😍
butter theif gaming cooooooooool! I hope you make it! I've just finished high school. But I'm taking a break. I'm working to gather some money. But I'll be applying for fall 2017 for college. And I'm sooooooooo excited! After I'm applying for ucla. I hope I get in. It's my dream!
13 years old rn I’ll be back to this video when Im in my senior year getting ready to apply and hopefully wishing I get in lowkey even started practicing those insight questions that’s how you know I’m dedicated
My dream school ... Gives me butterfly's just thinking in 2 years I'll be able to apply . I really want to study astronomy . It's going to be hard to get there , but it's all going to be worth it .
I envy all the students who got admission at UCLA. I applied 3 times to Luskin School Urban Planning Department, once for MS and twice for Ph.D. Got admission offer for MS without funding, so couldn't take the offer. Then got rejection each time for Ph.D. Last time I applied for fall 2018 while I was already doing my Ph.D. at UIUC and got a rejection just today. I don't know why I can't stop applying there, but, this is it. Anyway, congratulations and kudos to everyone who got admission. Hope you all succeed in your journey.
Rub Well, you're half right. It's actually way better to even have just a 3.8 or so gpa, but be superb in a sport and extracurriculars. Thats something most forget about.
matt yea exactly. I'm graduating with a (predicted) 3.85 unweighted but I'm also do a lot of extracurricular plus leadership positions. UCLA is my top choice for film! I really hope that I'll get in (2019!!).
I'm from Middle East, I'm going to apply for MS degree in UCLA once I graduate and get my bachelor degree, this is my last semester, wish me all the good guys, I believe this step is going to be a turning point in my life.
@@DZ-bj3yx I'm a junior in hs but some advice is to always keep your grades up, take AP/IB courses, start studying for the SAT early, and get involved in extracurriculars you are interested in.
I'm a 13 year old from Scotland and this is my dream university, when I'm 14 I'm allowed a Saturday job. Every single chance I get to work and make money I will take so I can save up to move to L.A. My exams start are in two years time and I am motivated enough from this video to study every single second that I can just to get into this UCLA.
I'm a senior in high school right now and I was admitted to UCLA about 2 weeks ago. A B average is enough to get in, but that would mean your SAT or ACT scores should be high. About 1800 for the SAT and a solid 27 Composite for the ACT. Write your personal statement truthfully and make it stand out because the admissions officers read tens of thousands of it. Write it in a manner that shows you off best! And finally, engage in extracurricular activities, show them that you're part of a community
My dad is a professor at UCLA I’m in my 2nd year of high school, and ever since I got into high school he sends me this telling me that he wants me to go to UCLA but I live in Singapore so it’s gonna be a little hard😂 but I do visit UCLA every time I go see my dad
I’m 14 and this has been my dream school from the age of 11 and it’s the only school I ever imagine myself being in, would do anything to go there and I am doing everything to get there
Applying as an international student (Great Britain) in three months! Getting into UCLA will kickstart my American Dream! Super excited yet super nervous.
Im just a sophomore in high school, and I can't wait for my next to years to end because I'm actually excited for college. I just really hope I get in to UCLA. I
UCLA received 90,000 applicants worldwide this year... 25,000 more than any other university in the world... Most NCAA championships, beautiful campus, top ranked medical hospital... I could go on and on. I'm not a Bruin, but I see why worldwide everyone wants to go to this school :) keep it up Bruins!
I hope someday I can go to UCLA. It has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. I first got this great idea when I watched full out the movie. It really inspired me and especially Ariana Berlin. She is a great role model for me and I want to follow in her footsteps. UCLA is so important to me and I really want to go there. I love UCLA so much.❤️❤️

Sometimes I feel stupid for already feeling the need to research college as I am in the first year of middle school. However sometimes I’m able to pinpoint the colleges I would like to attend. And this is one of them.
My first name My last name researching colleges in middle school is rare but if you’re determined to go to a UCLA then it’s never too early to start :) good luck
I just went on a field trip here on Thursday February 23rd, 2012. I got so inspired. I've always liked UCLA but after my visit there, I LOVE it, it's my dream school. It has such a great campus. Seeing all the students walk around going to classes and just everything about it has motivated me to work harder if I really want to get in. Im just a sophomore in high school, and I can't wait for my next to years to end because I'm actually excited for college. I just really hope I get in to UCLA. I

It's great to see young people posting comments regarding them dreaming about UCLA. I remember when I was in their position. Continue to work hard and you'll become a True Bruin like me.
Im just in 7th grade and I just can't wait until I get to collage, I know that as a fact I am definitely going to UCLA. I am always talking to my mom about how much I want to go to UCLA. I can't wait until I get to go collage.
What's financial aid like for out-of-state students? I'm really interested in applying, but I'm not sure my family and I can afford my potential attendance at UCLA.
***** Thank you for the information about the potential total cost of UCLA. It would be helpful to see any data about financial aid, especially that of non California residents.
I got accepted a couple of weeks ago for an exchange to UCLA. Looking forward to crossing the pond for the first time this august. It will be a change though, from 300 days of rain in the Netherlands to 300 days of sunshine.
