They are good listeners who help students problem-solve when issues arise in academic areas. The UJ Career Counseling Office helps students to obtain intern positions in their fields of interest. These internships provide them with invaluable learning experiences that can influence their educational and career goals. A professional career counselor is available to assist students in clarifying their interests, selecting a major and focusing on career goals. Opportunities to develop one's career perspectives also take place in the classroom and through mentoring experience with UJ professors.
Students also have assistance available when they apply for jobs or internships.
UJ students receive a Privilege Card at the beginning of every year. This entitles them to all programs and services of the UCLA Department of Cultural and Recreational Services and limited services of the UCLA Central Ticket Office. The UJ's Residence Halls have a small gym that contains weights and cardiovascular exercise equipment. The UJ Mentor Program matches our students with members of the larger community who are successful in an area of interest to the student. Current mentors specialize in such areas as business, education, entertainment, politics and Jewish philanthropy.
