Campus Visit Notes for University of California-Los Angeles
Visit Description:
The visit was great. UCLA is clean, friendly, and left a positive mark during my visit. The students are a mix of social and academic-focused people. This is a top 5 public university; I would recommend coming here. Try a campus tour to see the campus for yourself!
