Graduate Advisor
In university admissions, a graduate student is usually selected, or appointed, an faculty advisor who assists the student in the program planning and completing the degree requirements. Sometimes this role is temporarily assumed by a faculty advisor assigned to the program as a whole. When a student master's or doctoral committee is established, the chairman of the committee assumes the role of an advisor.
Degrees and general requirements
A graduate student earns a master's or doctoral degree by outstanding success in specialty research and research. In addition to coursework, there are various means of assessing research success, including qualifications and in-depth examinations and various types of laboratory and fieldwork. Research success is primarily assessed through the evaluation of a master's thesis or doctoral dissertation. And professional master's doctoral degree programs require professional training. Demonstrating success in these areas can take many forms, including fieldwork, project completion, and training, which includes professional permitting.

For more specific degree requirements, students should consult their departments and UCLA Graduate Degree Program Requirements (available for academic year of university enrollment on the Graduate Division website). <grad.ucla.edu/academics/graduate-study/program-requirements-for-ucla-graduate-degrees/> (A similar system of admission to graduate school operates in Europe, but, for example, studying in Poland is much cheaper than in others European countries - more http://study-and-travel.net/).
UCLA English as a Second Placement Language Examination (ESLPE), diagnostic (placement) exam required for admission to UCLA graduate students who, as applicants, were required to pass the TOEFL or IELTS exam, and otherwise, he did not satisfy the ESL request. Students who score 100 or higher on the TOEFL iBT exam or who receive an IELTS full grade score of 7.5 or higher are exempt from this requirement. The exam must be passed no later than the end of the first quarter of graduate school at the University of California, Los Angeles.
The ESLPE student account will determine any requirements to complete ESL courses, which must be taken as early as possible and before advancing a candidate for the degree. The student's faculty or program oversees admission to and satisfactory completion of such courses. Students who as applicants were required to take the TOEFL or IELTS exam and who wish to hold teaching apprenticeship assignments at UCLA must also take and pass the Oral Proficiency Test (APEX) exam before starting their assignment.

Duplicate degrees
The Municipal Graduate Policy indicates that:
The University of California generally discourages duplication of degrees. At the same time, it recognizes that a professional degree does not duplicate an academic, and that holders of either an advanced or professional degree may have an urgent need to pursue another degree in a field very different from that of their first endeavors.
All applicants for a second degree at the same level as, or at a lower level than the degree they already hold will be required to show a compelling reason to the department before it is considered and recommended for admission to the Dean of the Graduate Division.
If admitted for a second degree, students will be held to all normal degree requirements and University regulations pertaining to fees, registration, examinations, promotion, residency, etc. Courses already referred to any earlier academic degree cannot be applied to a second degree.
The Graduate Division is particularly concerned that a thorough review and special justification be made by the specialization program in all cases where an applicant or continuing student is recommended for admission to a second doctoral program. This concern also extends to the recommendation for student support for pursuing a second doctoral degree.

Master's degree
Keystone thesis or plan
Depending on which one is offered by their largest department, students follow either a thesis plan (Plan I) or a cornerstone plan (Plan II). University minimum standards are the same by any plan, but the department may set higher standards and require additional courses and / or examinations to assess the student's ability in the field. A graduate departmental advisor should be consulted regarding such requirements. Information regarding standards and examinations can also be found in the UCLA General Directory and in the UCLA Degree Program Requirements.
