Attend Live Virtual Campus Tour in Spanish with UCLA!

Hello from Westwood,
On behalf of UCLA Campus Tours, we would like to invite your students, families and school to a Virtual Live Spanish Tour next Thursday, May 27th from 6:00 – 7:15pm PST.
Over the last year, as we transitioned from in-person to virtual tours, our guides have seen the benefit to reach even more students via a virtual platform. With their continued advocacy and concern to reach more members of the community we have implemented a Spanish language tour.
This event will consist of a one-hour campus tour followed by a 15-minute live Q&A. Throughout the tour, students and their families will be encouraged to submit their questions via Zoom’s Q&A feature.
