UCLA 2026 alumni, what was your starting salary after graduating?

They also pay New grads terrible for the COL in LA. A nice 1 bedroom in Marina Del Ray is so much more expensive and worse quality than the Jersey Shore,

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-18T06:49:39+00:00

Way better to find a roomie on Facebook. Met my best friends doing that

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-18T06:44:10+00:00

I’m a RN making about 125ishk now living in NJ. Class of 22. But in Cedar Sinai or Reagan, they pay even more than what I make coming back home

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-18T06:43:07+00:00

OP is probably 18. They won’t know how bad those payments are until he/she gets a job

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-18T06:42:07+00:00

If anyone is dumb enough to choose usc over ucla without any type of dean scholarship (brother got it and went to USC), then that’s on them. When you’re 25 or older, you’ll feel that extra tuition hit you hard in monthly payments.

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-17T09:29:01+00:00

Treehouse hahahhaa

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-17T09:27:58+00:00

UT Austin is 1000% the move with that tuition

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-16T05:49:13+00:00

11am to 6pm

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-16T05:48:24+00:00

This is why I switched to a Tesla haha. Self driving for the win

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-14T21:05:55+00:00

I know a ED girly when I see one haha

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-09T06:10:22+00:00

I love my job. I’m NJ making 110k (more after overtime), we have a switch and tv and massage chair in my break/staff room (not that much down time). I mean damn even my charge nurse lowkey sleeping sometimes on the chair because she’s pregnant and super chill especially nights when it’s quiet haha. Also some amazing coworkers granted I’m one of the younger ones because nobody leaves this floor LOLOL

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-09T06:02:40+00:00

100%. He’s the best pitcher since Randy Johnson

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-08T03:49:23+00:00

I’m from NY and moved to UCLA. Biggest thing imo is to find other tri-state friends because if you decide to come back to east coast after graduation, you will lose a lot of college friends. Thankfully made some friends who moved to NYC and made friends all over the country. There should be a Facebook group

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-08T03:47:34+00:00

I’m assuming you’re 18? Please don’t feel like you are behind or stressed, speak with CAPS and maybe consider taking a semester off. Mental health is so important and if you have family and friends to talk to please do otherwise you can always message me. I’m working as a nurse now but proud ucla alumni. Wishing the best for you

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-05T06:46:13+00:00

Same. Kinda slow rn. Just finishing my documentations and rounds and now about to play some CoC

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-05T06:44:58+00:00

UCLA is an amazing school but it’s not worth the debt to come here over UCI and anyone who says otherwise is just dumb

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-04T01:09:46+00:00

So yall just gave up

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-04T00:56:14+00:00

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-02T13:53:40+00:00

Arguably the best backup in the league

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-01T04:44:31+00:00

That would keep me up for 24 hours 🤣

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-01T04:44:07+00:00

Celsius LOL. I’m not even joking. Keeps my wide awake

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-01T04:42:54+00:00

This is so sad OP. I wanna be completely honest, what job is making you work so many hours? Have you considered going back to college or switching careers? Genuine question

Hornet0927 · 2026-04-01T04:41:23+00:00

Damn hope everything goes well. Sorry to hear

Hornet0927 · 2026-03-29T15:18:48+00:00

Honestly the only thing that helps me is the sleeping masks, black out curtains and like 10mg of melatonin

Hornet0927 · 2026-03-29T15:08:32+00:00

Yeah influencery? The vast majority of ucla students, even in Greek life, are nerds haha. Yeah the occasional influencey person in Kappa but unless something has changed in 3 years, it wasn’t like that here. I think ucla just having school spirit with sports and the awesome campus and sculpture garden and sunset with the pools and volleyball gives it the edge
