Some 15,000 Bruins will be receiving their degrees this commencement season and launching into the next chapter in their lives, carrying with them the unique blend of academic excellence, diverse experiences and a commitment to making the world a better place that only UCLA provides.

Each one of our students has traveled their own unique path to reach this milestone, and to honor them — the challenges they have overcome, the talents they have contributed and the inspiration they will continue to provide for all of us — we are privileged to spotlight just a few of their stories.

These undergraduate and graduate students, who come from across campus and represent a rich tapestry of backgrounds, cultures, perspectives and disciplines, have enhanced our community and reflect the qualities that continue to set UCLA apart as the No. 1–ranked public university in the nation.

Please join us in honoring UCLA’s class of 2024.
