The trajectory of an individual's life can change with a college degree, yet rising costs continue to make higher education less accessible for many. UCLA's Financial Aid & Scholarships Office ensures that talented and promising students can attend UCLA regardless of their financial circumstances. Upholding UCLA's goal of a debt-free education by 2030, Financial Aid focuses on providing need-based scholarships to students who need it the most, including those from low-income households, first-generation college students, and middle-income families who might otherwise be overlooked. Here at UCLA, we are committed to making higher education attainable for all, ensuring that every student has the support they need to thrive.
