All freshmen and most sophomores live on-campus dorms. Most of the upper classmen live in Westwood or Santa Monica (which has shuttles that take them to campus). The graduate student housing is outside of Westwood (about 5 minutes drive on a good day. 15~25 traffic).
lol. I'm Chinese and not gangsta enough to C-walk. It'll b fairly easy to learn, I think. I don't dancce I just pull up my pants and do the rockaway. Westwood isn't really hood (UCLA is about 35~40% Asian). Hey at least if you move out you won't have to be associated with the likes of luda and dipset! hahahahahahahahahahaha
