Transportation and Parking Requirement

All Students at DGSOM Must Have Reliable Transportation

Given the rich network of educational experiences at affiliate hospitals, community clinics, and practices, all students at DGSOM must have reliable transportation.

Absences due to a lack of reliable means of transportation will not be excused. Any student not meeting the above requirement for transportation will be subject to administrative action at the discretion of the Associate Dean for Student Affairs and/or the Committee on Academic Standing, Progress and Promotion.

Accommodations are designed to promote successful engagement in the UCLA academic experience. If you have a documented disability that may be the basis for an accommodation related to this policy, please contact the UCLA Center for Accessible Education. The UCLA Center for Accessible Education (CAE) facilitates academic accommodations for students with documented permanent and temporary disabilities.
