Hi there, the average GPA of UCLA admits to Comm Studies this year was 3.89. My GPA was 4.0, and I got into both UCB and UCLA’s Comm Program. I know that UCLA’s program is fiercely competitive–you’ll need to boost your GPA in order to get into UCLA’s. I think you’ll have a pretty good shot at UCB if you do well next fall–strive for an upward trend in your GPA!

I also recommend doing media-related work on the side–it doesn’t have to be anything extravagant (like a major internship), but participating in the school paper, being a radio DJ, volunteering at a TV station, even helping out in advertising something, et cetera. All of these little things will help you.

Good luck!
