UCLA publishes housing options and costs through Housing and Residence Life, while international estimates use $22,500 for living expenses for the planning year shown by the International Center. Campus housing is not guaranteed for every student or every programme. Compare university housing, shared Westwood accommodation and private rentals, and confirm contract terms, deposits, meal plans and commute before accepting an offer.
Daily living support image
Image placeholder
Students can use UCLA dining, campus retail and the wider Westwood food area, with options that vary by residence and meal plan. Dietary needs should be checked with UCLA Dining before arrival because menus, allergen handling and opening hours change. Include groceries, meals, transport and personal expenses within the International Center’s published living estimate rather than treating it as tuition.
Safety and support image
Image placeholder
UCLA provides campus safety, emergency communication and student health resources, with current procedures published by UCLA Police and campus offices. Los Angeles is a large city, so students should review the campus map, emergency contacts, transport guidance and housing location before arrival. Safety information and services can change; use the university’s current guidance after admission. International students receive immigration and arrival guidance through the Dashew Center, while UCLA also provides academic, health, counselling and disability-support services. Graduate applicants apply through the central graduate route for most academic programmes, but JD, LLM, DDS, MBA and other professional schools use their own application processes. Confirm the correct office before submitting documents.
