UCLA Student Media

You may only complete two applications maximum. Applying to more than one department does not help or hinder your chances at being accepted. If you fill out the "General Application" do not fill out any department applications. UCLA Radio Sports is the premier destination for students interested in starting a career in journalism and broadcasting. Our department currently airs a show each day from 5-6pm on Monday-Friday. The department currently has reporting opportunities with the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers and is looking to expand coverage by doing play-by-play coverage of UCLA sporting events.
