SEA Admit Weekend is about bringing equal opportunity to Southeast Asian high school students. Through this weekend spent on campus, students are given the chance to learn from fellow admits, current UCLA undergraduates students, and even UCLA alumni.
While some peer to peer learning takes place in casual interactions within their SEA Admit families and through various group activities, admits will also have the chance to formally gain new skills and knowledge through introspective and insightful workshops.
