- Admitted student with an active winter and/or spring term and a degree expected term after the end of the summer term.
- Admitted student returning from a leave of absence (excluding students on probation or subject to dismissal) with a degree expected term after the end of the summer term.
WHY BE A SUMMER BRUIN?
Why be a summer bruin? from UCLA Summer Sessions on Vimeo.
4 OUT OF 5 UCLA students will become a Summer Bruin at some point during their undergraduate career.
There are many reasons why UCLA students become Summer Bruins:
- Fulfill degree requirements to graduate on time or early
- Create flexibility to double major, take up a minor, and/or study abroad
- Have a lighter schedule to tackle and focus on courses that may be more difficult
- Enroll in an impacted course that is very hard to get a space in during the academic year
- Take a course of interest outside your major
- Complete the entire Foreign Language Requirement with a language intensive course
- Save money (Nonresident Supplemental Tuition is not assessed during the summer for out-of-state students)
- And many more…
Incoming first year and transfer students can start as early as the summer prior to their first quarter.
It is important that you understand how specific courses will apply towards your intended degree. Please be sure to consult with your academic advisor before enrolling.
