What are some tips to getting into UCLA?

Question

I am about to start school in a community college this fall and I am planning to transfer into UCLA in about 2 years. Besides completing all my transfer units and getting an associate degree, what else should I do in order for the college to accept me?

Answer 1

community service is always a good thing to have. usually there are clubs on campus that you can join that do com serv. regularly. its actually a lot of fun if the people youre volunteering with are nice.

Answer 2

Differentiate yourself by the things you do outside of the classroom. What are you passionate about? What do you want to do after UCLA? If there are things you can do that make you seem proactive and motivated, that will help you stand out from the "numbers" (Grades, SATs, etc)
