UC Santa Cruz's Financial Aid and Scholarship Office is committed to making it possible for admitted students to attend UCSC regardless of economic circumstances.
Each year, the campus assists more than 10,000 students - or about 6 out of every 10 undergraduates - with scholarships, grants, loans, and/or part-time employment opportunities. We also assist graduate students with federal student loans.

- In a letter to current undergraduate students, UCSC Chancellor George Blumenthal describes programs that can help students mitigate impact of fee hikes.
- Financing your education at UCSC can be challenging. But, as illustrated in a special web feature, earning a degree from UCSC has tremendous value. We think you'll agree that the 30 students featured made the absolute most of the opportunities UCSC offers.
