I believe the minimal GPA requirement is 4.25 weighted, and around 3.6-4.0 area unweighted. SAT test is important so try about 2100+ to gurantee a spot.
As for community service and such, because it is not a private school, it is more lax about needing original applicants. Just do some community service, get involved in a club and sport, and keep your grades up.

To prepare for UCLA and other UC schools, you should complete the a-g requirements (ask your counselor for the approved courses at your high school or check online at http://www.ucop.edu/doorways/ ), study and do well in your high school courses and standard tests (SAT and/or ACT, and SAT II), take as many honors and/or AP courses as you can handle, and commit to one or two extracurricular activities in which you develop leadership skills (more is not better, quality is better than quantity).
UCs (including UCLA) will weigh the following components of your application (in the order of importance): 1) your essay (the UC System publishes a guideline on how to write your personal statement at: https://uccp.collegepath.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=content.publicItem&NavID=238&ID=4 ) about your academic achievement, talent or extracurricular activities that highlight your motivation, dedication, and/or initiative to achieve, your potential to contribute to the university, and any special circumstances like hardship; 2) your grades and any grade trends (improvements are better than just maintaining a high GPA); 3) your test scores, including SAT and/or ACT, SAT II; and 4) number of AP courses completed compared to the number of AP courses offered at your high school. Other factors are taken into consideration, but to a lesser extent.
