The GSRC at UCLA
The UCLA Graduate Student Resource Center is a Graduate Students Association initiative
that is managed by Student Affairs. The GSRC is a one-stop resource, referral and information center for graduate students, offering programs and workshops on a variety of topics, drop-in counseling, a web and in-house resource library, meeting and study space, and the opportunity for social interaction. The GSRC works with GSA to organize the New Graduate Student Orientation each fall. The Graduate Student Resource Center is also the home of the new Graduate Writing Center. All graduate and professional students are welcome. We are located in B11 of the new Student Activities Center
(formerly the Men's Gym).
