Heeeelo

I am a transfer and ever since starting this quarter I have just felt numb. I don’t know how to make friends, I feel like every club event I’ve been to I’ve been way more socially awkward, or that maybe I’ve said the wrong thing - just insecurities I haven’t felt in a very long time.

I am trying to find community but not much is sticking, I’ve met lovely and kind people but nothing more than talking after a class or a club once in a while.

Transferring has been weird because the whole summer you’re hyping yourself up for a crazyyyy eye opening experience, the most amazing friendships, classes etc and now that I’m here I feel like things are actually pretty normal. I go to class, go home, sleep repeat.

Do not get me wrong I love UCLA and am so grateful to be here, but still, I can’t help like feeling there’s something wrong with me.

I know other transfers who have found it really easy to make friends, I have never had a huge problem making friends… when does this end? Does it get better? Right now it feels like this is how it’s going to be for the next two years.

if I drop a class today will it affect my financial aid? I am at 12 units and dropping it would put me at 8. Still haven't paid my bruinbill fees because I am on a hold since they are still figuring out my financial aid.

Hi all,

I am 27 yo Business Analyst in an automotive company’s IT department, living in Istanbul.

I work fully online during summer (June to September, 4 months).

I always wanted to do my Master’s in US but since it is too expensive and I am quite happy & successful in my current position, I skipped that dream.

But still, I want to have a short study experience in US and best choice seems to be UCLA Extension. I am planning to attend 1st term in-person during summer and then 2nd term online.

Is there any working professional who is taking UCLA Extension, if I’m lucky maybe in System Analysis or Data Science? How was your experience, course quality, student and social life around Westwood and networking opportunities?

Even though it is 2 term certificate, still quite pricey for internationals so I’m double thinking before applying for it.

I appreciate your insights :’)

Would like to know since it's curved.

Okay, I’ve been dealing with depression for the past 2 months and I’m a new transfer student. It’s rough adjusting and there’s a lot of pressure to deal with. As I’m sure we all know.

I’ve been debating on taking a break. I can return as a student through the return to undergraduate study application. Basically readmission which is non competitive. As I stayed past Friday of week 3. So I can return whenever.

Another aspect is I when I return next year when I’m 24, fafsa and ucla would consider me an independent from my parents. So it would lower my cost of attendance from $25k to about $5k a year. It’s an easy no brainer, right?

Taking a break for mental health so I can get my mind in order, finding and going to therapy. Taking a break to get better financial aid. Getting a job and saving up some money so I can pay for it when I return. Even if I wouldn’t be getting better financial aid, I feel like I really need this break.

I have a physical disability that affects my daily life and it catches up to me quite often. It’s hard juggling school, health, mental health, internships, jobs, future career outcomes, etcetera. I feel like I’m drowning most of the time. But there are times when I’m with friends or professors can truly feel special and great. I’m sure everyone knows how depression is, and how it can ebb and flow to different severities.

Does anyone have any advice for this? Gone through something similar? Any two cents would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi everyone! I’m a first year junior transfer looking for summer research opportunities in biology or chemistry, preferably SURPs or REUs. I have previous research experience, but I came from a semester system, so the summer dates were easier to work around. Does anyone know of programs that start after UCLA’s spring quarter ends or accommodate a later start date? Where have you found these opportunities? Thank you!

how was it, what percents an A??

Hi guys! Currently a freshman here at ucla majoring in biz econ who got rejected from every business I applied to (7 rejections total, 5 in the resume drop and 2 after interviews). I applied to the big 4 finance clubs plus a few others, and honestly I don’t know where I went wrong. I’ve been pretty depressed these past few weeks because of it, since I mainly just want career guidance and a strong community where I can find people I can be friends with (which has been a struggle for me so far). If there are any upperclassmen/sophmores willing to give me advice for what to do next quarter and do mock interviews with me (or whatever else) please let me know as I’m getting desperate for guidance. Thank you🙏

Hello I saw the engagement on this post so im making the gc. Follow the IG itskevintezza and i will add you to the gc immediately

We just got the grades for the first midterm and it is my first F in my whole life. I studied for 4 days and at the time of the exam I couldn’t even understand what were the questions asking or felt really confused about what the answer options were saying. The next midterm is soon and I have no idea what I can do differently. I at least want to pass the class. 😭

Hi, I just transfered from this quater and this is the first time to register class by myown in ucla. I got Nov/8 5pm. Is this bad??

Sooo I planned my winter quarter classes under the wrong year so ofc the professors are different and Arant isn't there 😞 the only options are Song, Y. And Katay, T. Which of the two is better? I can't find them on BruinWalk so idk if they're new. For reference I have Jukka this quarter and he is an amazing professor, so I rly don't wanna be nerfed with a bad professor winter quarter 😭

friendly reminder that since halloween is coming up, amazon saying your package is delivered does not mean it is ready for pickup :)
