Admission criteria established by the UCLA Graduate Division require a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution comparable in standards and content to a bachelor’s degree from the University of California. A cumulative scholastic grade-point average of B (3.0 on a 4.0 scale) or better—or its equivalent if the letter grade system is not used—is required for undergraduate study and in any postbaccalaureate study. Additional requirements for international applicants are explained in Graduate Study. See the Graduate Division admissions website.
Departments and programs in the school set additional admission requirements. See the school admissions web page.
Specific degree requirements vary according to the department and program. Refer to program requirements for UCLA graduate degrees.
