• The minimum GPA requirement to be eligible for admission, is a 3.0 for California Residents. 3.4 if you are coming from Out Of State or International.

    In our supplemental review, we look at all eligible candidates in context, because we are aware that creative students spend their time differently, and that investment and aptitude may not be represented in your GPA.

    A 3.0-3.4 GPA is not a bad GPA— that is a B average. The great majority of our students do very well academically in their general education coursework here at UCLA.

  • We don’t consider standardized test scores. The entire University of California system is test free, it is not a part of our admission selection at all.

  • UCLA only guarantees a review for your first choice major, so you have to pick one for the admission process. When you arrive at UCLA, then you can explore double majoring.

  • No. If you selected a UCLA Arts major as your first choice to UCLA, and you do not pass the department supplemental evaluation, you do not get placed in the general pool for admission to Letters & Science.

  • Yes. If you apply multiple times, you are considered on the basis of the materials you submit for that admission cycle only; we don’t look at materials from past admission evaluations.
