As reported in the UCLA Newsroom and other local news outlets, UCLA has acquired a newly built 62-unit apartment building in West Los Angeles, adding 142 beds to its graduate student inventory. The Canfield Apartments, at 3301 South Canfield Ave., are located in the Cheviot Hills neighborhood, surrounded by Westwood, Beverly Hills, Century City and Culver City.
Move-in for the first residents of the six-story building began Oct. 1.
“This deal underscores UCLA’s commitment to offering comfortable and more affordable housing options for students in the competitive Los Angeles market,” said Pete Angelis, assistant vice chancellor for housing and hospitality.
The building, spanning nearly 84,000 square feet, offers a variety of accommodations, from studios to three-bedroom units. Five of the apartments are designated as deed-restricted affordable housing units.
In 2022, UCLA became the first — and remains the only — UC campus to guarantee housing to all undergraduates, including four years for first-year students and two years for transfers.
