Ffiona Rees

Executive Director
Undergraduate Admission

Ffiona Rees has served in the college admission profession for over 25 years and is currently the Executive Director of Admission at UCLA. Prior to moving to California and UCLA in 2012, she worked at The George Washington University in Washington, DC for 15 years.

Ffiona is a past-Chair of the Board for the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC), an organization of over 27,000 members dedicated to serving students as they make choices about pursuing postsecondary education.

Ffiona has two degrees from The George Washington University: a BA in Geography, and an MBA. She lived in Oxford, England for seven years; so you’ll notice she pronounces some words differently. She’s been lucky enough to travel throughout the United States and the world to recruit students. Highlights include playing with lion cubs in South Africa, visiting the Great Wall and the Taj Mahal, and having lots of frequent flier miles!
