As a UCLA alumni who graduated with a degree in history, I can confidently say that you two will both get accepted into UCLA’s history program, unless you are missing some requirements. But judging by your GPA’s, you’ll be in. When and if you get in, shoot me a message and I’ll give you info on which professors/courses to take and which ones to avoid.
@need2g2college, most students who graduate with a degree in history frequently transition towards law school. I think I was the only one who wasn’t going towards that route(Plus, my sibling and her spouse are both attorneys, so I have that in the family. :-0 ). I have applied to a few grad schools to pursue a masters in history, so I can teach(Maybe at a CC level but will pursue a Ph.D in the future, I just wasn’t ready to commit to 5 years just yet). I personally love history, and for me nothing else made more sense than this subject.
Best of luck to the both of you. And again, if you have further questions about UCLA’s department, do not hesitate to ask.
