WHAT TO EXPECT ON FOR YOUR PROGRAM

Events emphasize interactive and engaging discussions with your group. While the following arrangements are not required for visits, they can improve the experience immensely!
 
MAY WE RECOMMEND…

  • Nametags

The event experience can be improved if guides can address your students by their names. Give name tags to each student on the tour, or have students make their own.

  • Pre-visit Materials

Reviewing basic information about college and UCLA with your students can enhance the student’s interactions with our programs.

  • Pre-selected Question

Have students prepare a list of questions they would like answered about college or UCLA prior to your visit.
