Going Away to College

Going away to college is a learning experience in more ways
than one not just academically, but personally and socially,
too. A campus is a place of self-discovery where you belong to
a community of diverse students, some of whom will become
your life-long friends. Where you chose to live is critical to the
quality of your college experience.

Our goal is to provide you

with not just housing
but a home.

To help you get the most

out of your time at UCLA,
we offer a variety of oncampus housing options.
All are designed with
three things in mind
convenience, comfort, and
a sense of community.

The Residential Community

UCLAs on-campus housing is designed with your daily needs
in mind. With your housing and meals taken care of, you are free
to concentrate on being a full-time student. Studies show that
resident students perform better academically, have more contact
with faculty, and are happier with their college experience than
those who commute.

gives you opportunities for both academic and personal
growth. You can choose from several coed on-campus options,
all of which provide furnished rooms that are wired for basic
