Types of Applications

New

If you are applying to UCLA as a graduate student for the first time, or if you have applied before but were not admitted, complete all parts of the application. The $70.00 (for U.S. citizens and Permanent Residents) or $90.00 (for all other applicants) application fee must be submitted either on line by credit card, or, if necessary, by check or money order, before the application can be processed.

Renewal

If you filed an application for graduate admission at UCLA within the last year and were admitted but did not register, be sure to select Renewal from the dropdown menu at Application Type in the application.  Submit only the application, and any additional or updated information or records. One renewal of application is accepted without the application fee.

After the first renewal the application fee must be submitted with each subsequent application. If you applied for admission more than one year ago, you must submit a new application, the application fee, and all required materials.

Readmission

If you ever registered as a graduate student at UCLA, whether you completed a graduate program or not, complete all parts of the application. The application fee must be submitted with the application.

Formal application for readmission is not required of a student returning from an official leave of absence, nor is formal application required of a currently enrolled UCLA graduate student changing from one major to another.
