hindia94 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Hi all, New to this, but just thought I'd start a thread for anyone starting at UCLA in 2021. I'll be joining the PhD programme in Islamic Studies. Very excited and nervous about coming from the UK too! Anyone else starting at UCLA this fall?

So excited. Let me know if you have questions about being an international student, I used to be one not that long ago Scrambledmegs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's so much to think about lol bank accounts, sim cards, visa... the list goes on ? I have sort of looked at apartments but not too seriously since school starts until October. So planning to visit LA in the coming months, and do a serious search over the summer. I live in California already, so it’s a little easier to plan a trip. I am coming with my partner so we are open to renting a small apartment or sharing a bigger apartment or house with other people, so let’s stay in touch! bank accounts and phones are really easy here, very straight forward, you can do both in less than a day Edited March 8, 2021 by Hphphphp hindia94 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hityrdh Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Hello, do you know if they sent out all decisions to people who were accepted. I still have no heard back from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly about getting a California license as an international and whether it's necessary if I have a license from my home country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
