UCLA is located in a mostly residential neighborhood. There is bus service available. Transportation from the airport is best by taxi. Typical fair is about $45. Local hotels are not large and do not provide free airport shuttles.
The Los Angeles Metro system does not connect to either UCLA or LAX. (A bit of a mystery).
Taxis are available. Step out onto the sidewalk just outside of the terminal and walk to a taxi stop that should be marked by an overhead sign. The LAX website provides more information on Taxi services at LAX, including a list of taxi companies serving LAX and a map for taxi waiting area.
