Programs and Services
UCLA Campus Life is a division of Student Affairs that is committed to promoting student engagement and development on campus and out in the community. In all programs and activities, we strive to create opportunities that are educational, inclusive, leadership-focused, sustainable, and healthy. Through a variety of initiatives, UCLA students experience meaningful, learning-filled activities that facilitate lifestyles with balance among academic endeavors, extracurricular pursuits, and personal wellness.
Most UCLA students are affiliated with Campus Life programs and activities, including the more than 1,000 student organizations, club sports or intramural teams, leadership experiences, and community service initiatives. Some Campus Life programs provide students the opportunity to design and administer their own endeavors on- and off-campus. Other Campus Life programs make it possible for students to earn academic course credits (through service-learning projects), to receive grants and scholarships, and to acquire certificates for a distinct achievement or for some professional training. In summary, for the UCLA student community and beyond, Campus Life is pivotal in helping to develop and nurture active and meaningful engagement on- and off-campus.
