Weyburn Terrace will be converted into undergraduate housing over the next three years, UCLA Housing announced in a Jan. 14 email to residents.
Three buildings in Weyburn Terrace – Aloe, Magnolia and Sycamore – will be converted to undergraduate housing later this year, UCLA Housing said in the email. All graduate students must vacate Weyburn Terrace by July 1, 2027, UCLA Housing said in a Jan. 14 follow-up email.
UCLA Housing will offer moving support for residents in Aloe, Magnolia and Sycamore from March 23 to April 3, April 27 to May 3 and, if needed, from June 15 to June 21, it said in the follow-up email.
The change will allow UCLA to fulfill its four-year undergraduate and two-year transfer housing guarantee, UCLA Housing added in the initial email. Weyburn Terrace, a university-owned nine-building housing complex, includes studio apartments, two-bedroom apartments and two-bedroom townhouses, according to UCLA Housing’s website.
UCLA Media Relations did not respond in time to a request for comment on the transition.
“Undergraduate housing demand continues to rise, especially as UCLA expands access and maintains its commitment to providing guaranteed housing,” UCLA Housing said in the initial email.
UCLA recently acquired three properties – the Venice and Berryman apartment buildings, which are located in Mar Vista – meant to serve as alternative housing options, UCLA Housing said in the follow-up email.
Residents will receive moving support, priority access to other graduate housing and housing placements that take students’ preferences into consideration, it added in the follow-up email.
Existing housing locations – including the new West Los Angeles properties, Hilgard apartments, Keystone/Mentone apartments, Rose Avenue apartments and The Boulevard apartments – remain housing options for graduate students.
”We understand that housing changes can feel stressful, and we want to reassure you that you will not navigate this transition alone,” UCLA Housing said in the initial email.
