University of California-Los Angeles Top Questions

That all asians are biology majors

That there are lots of blondes and Asians (University of Caucasions Lost among Asians...a little racist, I know). Ucla students are known to work hard and party hard, especially when compared to Berkeley students (who ONLY study hard), and that it's a highly competitive university.

One stereotype is that UCLA is full of nerdy asians or shallow blondes.

We're absolutely brilliant and amazingly attractive.

One main stereotype is: University of Caucasians Lost Among Asians. It's really a UC-wide thing that we're very Asian. Also, that we're poorer than the privileged USC kids.

UCLA has Southern California "bros" and beachbums. UCLA students are shallow and very materialistic.

Everyone seems to think that we're all geeky people that never stop studying, or conversely that we're all super involved in the histrionics of Hollywood!

Being Asian, being smart.

I feel like we're stereotyped as being typical LA people ...stuck up, unfriendly, always partying, famous, etc. I've been at school here for 3 years now and I have to say I've met some of the best people while I've been here.

There seems to be the notion that there are a lot of Asian students here. This statement is very true, so if you haven't ever been afflicted by Yellow Fever in your life, well you better get used to it or you're destined to a life of loneliness as far as UCLA is concerned. Just kidding of course, kind of. There is also the stereotype that UCLA students are all very studious, not as much as say Cal, but still a lot. This is pretty true, while there are a fair amount of idiots who somehow got into our school, a majority of people here study all the fuckin time and are very well read and all that stuff. It's sickening, but it's also very invigorating to be around.
