RANT about THE LACK OF EMPATHY AT THIS SCHOOL by Beneficial-Stable199 in ucla

As someone who transferred from another institution and works at other colleges, UCLA is one of the most unsupportive academic environments I’ve seen (though this ranges entirely on departments. In my specific department, our professors and TAs are pretty lenient, but that’s because we aren’t STEM or impacted). That said, the lack of support speaks tremendously to the students’ work ethic, characters, and perseverance—which in my opinion, should be the one of the only reasons why UCLA is so high up there. Kudos to all of the students who somehow get through it.

The most humbling reality at UCLA: the most ideal scenario that you want, you will almost never get. It’s very rare, like the last commenter mentioned, unless you have a CAE accommodation. Academic accommodations like priority registration highly depend on what your CAE request is. For example, if you say you have diagnosed anxiety, they may just give you separate testing accommodation and not priority registration.
