Financial Aid

2023-24 Cost of Attendance

The cost of attendance is a comprehensive budget comprised of both direct and indirect costs. 

Your cost of attendance is a reflection of what it can cost you for an academic year to assist you in financial planning. Understand, the cost will be higher if you also attend summer or your personal on-campus housing assignment or your expenditures for non-UC billed items differ. 

The cost of attendance assigned to you also serves as the maximim eligibility you have for all combined financial aid sources.
