UCLA Housing and Dining?

I'm seriously considering applying to UCLA for my undergrad and I want to be as prepared as possible. Can anyone share their experience with UCLA's housing and dining options? How's the food? The living conditions?

UCLA's on-campus housing is known for being modern and comfortable, with several residence halls and apartment complexes to choose from. First-year students typically live in residence halls, which often come in the form of suite-style rooms, where several rooms share a common living area and restrooms. It's important to note that room assignments are based on a number of factors, including your class year, your living preferences, and what is available at the time you're assigned housing.

As for dining, UCLA prides itself on having some of the best college food in the country. There are several dining halls on campus, each with its own theme and menu. For instance, De Neve offers classics like burgers and pizza, whereas Bruin Plate opts for more health-conscious, gourmet fare. All the meal plans are designed to accommodate diverse dietary requirements whether they be vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free, and the university consistently works to incorporate feedback from students to provide diverse, high-quality food.

Bear in mind, dining plans are tied to where you live, and most first-year students opt for the unlimited meal plan, which gives unlimited access to the dining halls.

Remember that everyone's experience with housing and dining can be different, so it's good to ask for multiple opinions, if possible.
