Thank you for your interest in a UCLA group tour! We are grateful and excited for the opportunity to uncover your students’ potential in higher education at UCLA and/or beyond. Our group tours are led by current UCLA undergraduate students, who will provide a one-hour in-person walkthrough of campus and a comprehensive overview of relevant academic programs, resources, and student life tailored to the specific needs of your individual group of students. In order to ensure a smooth, successful experience, please review the following important information before submitting: 

Group Tour Guidelines

Group tour registrations are on a first-come, first-served basis. Once a date is fully booked, we are unable to accommodate additional requests. UCLA reserves the right to cancel registrations for groups that fail to meet our criteria. By registering, your group agrees to adhere to the rules listed below:

• Group tours are reserved for high schools, community colleges, and community-based organizations who work with students in 9th grade level and above.
  • If you are requesting a tour for students in 8th grade level and lower, please submit a request to our Cub Tours Program here.
  • If you are an individual family looking to bring a group of students to campus, please schedule an “on-campus tour” here.
• The primary contact listed on the form is responsible for responding to any communications sent by us via phone or email, so please confirm the details are correct and operational. Failure to confirm the details of your tour prior to or on the day of the visit if deemed necessary by our staff may result in a cancellation of your registration.
• One adult chaperone is required per 25 students, and the chaperone(s) are required to stay with the group for the entire duration of the tour. The chaperone(s) are responsible for maintaining the safety and wellbeing of the students throughout the tour. In accordance with UCLA’s Principles of Community and True Bruin Values, we expect that all campus visitors, including student guests, are inclusive and respectful and hold themselves and each other accountable. Chaperones should be conscious to control excessive talking and any inappropriate actions/language. If any guest behavior jeopardizes the holistic safety of any individual or the quality of the tour, UCLA Tour Guides reserve the right to end the tour at any time. Please refer to UCLA’s Values here for additional information.
• Arriving late will result in a shortened tour. If your group arrives more than 15 minutes late, the tour will be canceled. As there is a high demand for these tours, please be considerate of our guides’ time and other groups and cancel your registration if your group ends up being unavailable so that we may open this opportunity for others. Cancellations should be completed at least seven business days prior to the scheduled visit if possible. Failure to communicate delays and absences, even if unforeseen, may prevent your ability to register in the future.

Group Tour Information

• Group tour registrations typically open two months in advance.
• Please note that we do not offer Group Tours during the following periods:
  • Finals Weeks, Winter Break, Spring Break, majority of April, and Summer Break
  • We encourage you to reference the UCLA Academic Calendar for specific dates. 
• Availability is also dependent on tour guide staffing, which varies each quarter.
• While housing, athletics, and dining is discussed verbally on the group tour and guests are encouraged to ask questions, tour guides will not walk students through the housing areas, athletics facilities or dining options as we are not permitted visitation to those areas. Please contact the offices of interest separately if you would like your group to be accommodated here.
• Meal vouchers are not provided by UCLA Undergraduate Admissions at this time. If your group would like to dine on campus, information about our available public restaurants can be found here.
