zip code for UCLA
A quick guide to UCLA’s two zip codes
The zip code for a UCLA address is dependent on the recipient. There are two UCLA zip codes, 90025 and 90095, each of which applies to particular UCLA campus locations. For a complete, official guide on zip code usage for UCLA addresses, visit the UCLA Mail, Document and Distribution Services webpage through the link below.
Zip code 90024
UCLA residence halls and UCLA Extension departments use 90024 as their zip code. Here is an example of how to correctly format a 90024 address:
Joe Bruin (name)
UCLA Department or Residence Hall (department or residence hall name)
5555 Campus Hall (box, if available, and campus or street address)
Los Angeles, CA 90024 (city, state, zip code)

Zip code 90095
UCLA academic departments use 90095 as their zip code, so if you’re sending mail to a UCLA faculty or staff member, this is the zip code to use. Because the academic departments receive mail services from UCLA Mail, Document & Distribution Services (MDDS), there are a few other steps needed to format the UCLA department address correctly. Here’s how to format a 90095 address:
Joe Bruin (name)
UCLA Department (department)
Box 951234, 5555 Campus Hall (box and campus address)
Los Angeles, CA 90095-1234 (city, state, zip+4 code)
All 90095 addresses have box numbers. Each department’s box number begins with 95, which is followed by the first four digits of the six-digit campus mail code. So, if the campus mail code is 123456, the box number is 951234.
The same campus mail code follows the zip code. Since UCLA departments receive mail services from UCLA Mail, Document & Distribution Services, the 90095 zip code requires a USPS "zip + four" code. The “+ four” code is the first four digits of the campus mail code. If the campus mail code is 123456, then the U.S. mail zip code is 90095-1234.
You can find a department’s campus mail code by searching the department name on the UCLA Directory.
