Figuring out how to best utilize your time while at UCLA and then planning what you will do post-graduation can be challenging. Bruins that graduated from UCLA in the past know that feeling, too. During this panel, UCLA Latinx Alumni will share their stories, provide successful insights on ‘the next move,” and highlight ways you can be resilient during your journey.
RSVP here and we'll send you a confirmation email with the Zoom information before the event.
