Thanks for the heads up!!
What are the coolest features of UCLA that students can access / Best place to get food or coffee / & what events are a must to attend? @Tik1127
Best place to get food, coffee. Well, I personally always go off campus(or at least I did when I had long breaks between classes) and I head to Westwood Village. A short walk, or you can take the Bruin Bus. There are so many places to eat. 800 Degrees, Fat Sal’s, Fat Burger, In-N-Out,and you can’t forget Diddy Riese, just prepare to wait in line to get cookies and ice-cream, worth the wait. Do you have Yelp on your smartphone? If not, install it, time to time you get discounts, plus you get review of places near by. I am not a big coffee drinker(more of a tea drinker), there is CoffeeBean near by and there are a few coffee shops on campus.
If you want to stay on campus, head to Ackerman, there are fast food places like Panda Express, Rubio’s, Sbarro, Jamba Juice, and a lot more. If you want a meal with beer or wine, go to Wolfgang Pucks in Ackerman. Food is decent there, and if you just want to get away from studying and unwind.
But again, there are so many places near and on campus to eat, drink or do whatever you want. Install Yelp, it is a life saver. As for attending, events, not a big events person TBH. First quarter and a half, you get a feel for the school and adjusting by the Spring quarter, you are waiting for Summer to begin. Everything becomes word to mouth for events, and you’ll get plenty of
im trying to send in my transcripts by the june 1st deadline, but only a PDF option is coming up when I select ucla undergraduate… is this okay?
This June 1 deadline is a major fail. Just throwing it out there. You need a couple of weeks timeframe to send them, so they’re expecting ppl to do it mid-May or earlier, when a lot of ppl won’t even decide where to SIR until June 1. It would serve them right if they get 5000 transcripts from ppl who end up not SIRing.
Not to mention the havoc and busywork imposed on the CCCs having to deal with two transcript sends instead of one.
Whoever came up with this lame brain idea needs to be demoted.
Otherwise than that, I like it.

@UCLAme Chick Fil A. Nuff said.
@myneighbortotoro i think it has to be a physical and official transcript. Call your college tomorrow.
I did see that a couple UCs allowed electronic transfer of official transcripts if it’s through certain systems. I guess it has to be in place at the CCC and I’m not sure if all UCs allow it.
Anyway, the CCC would do it, not a student.@myneighbortotoro must be referring to the unofficial transcript pdf, which is not the same thing.
Lindy, you nailed it, re: June 1 transcripts. That’s exactly what’s blowing me away, there are so many who haven’t even SIR’d, or even know where they want to go yet. It’s absurd and having 6 colleges to request transcripts from means I get to do this 12 times over the next 60 days. RIDICULOUS!
Really. Talk about an epic blunder.
It kind of would be funny if they got inundated with useless transcripts…
You all are talking about the Fall 2014 official transcripts being due June 1, right? Then the Spring2015 official transcript is due July 1, no?
I would be surprised if folks don’t already have a very clear priority list for their UCs, doesn’t everyone? I mean doesn’t everyone have a first choice school, second choice and so on, down the line?
I have attended 5 campus. It is going to be such a hassle.
Thanks everyone!
I attended 3 different colleges, and for some reason, at one of the colleges, it doesn’t give me the option to send the physical copy… which is quite weird
what the heck? transcripts deadline is June 1??? I attended 4 different colleges… and didn’t even SIR…
Our CCC only uses electronic transcript services now for official reporting. They started that in 2012.
You’re not alone, wlasm. I feel extra sorry for those still waiting on privates and UCI. So many schools haven’t even released decisions yet.
If one is waiting on UCI, one should just send in the Fall 2014 transcripts now, don’t you think?
The UCLA waitlisters are beginning to circle the UCLA-accepted/UCB hopefuls, like sharks. Wishing them all the best of course!
UCLA waitlisters should also consider that schools provide more admission offers than they have space for; therefore, they only admit a small amount off the waitlist.
