The question of expense while attending the University is important to every student. It is difficult however, to give specific information about yearly expenditures. In a student body of some 35,590 members there are so many different tastes, as well as such a wide range of financial resources that each student must determine a budget in keeping with individual needs and financial conditions. The best help the University authorities can offer in planning a budget is to inform students of certain definite expense Items, and acquaint them with other items for which they will probably have to provide.
Fees are subject to change without notice.
In addition to the above fees and book and supply costs students should be prepared to pay living expenses for the nine-month academic period. As a major center for graduate study, UCLA offers a percentage of its qualified graduate students substantial support through several types of financial assistance. Awards are based on either academic merit or financial need but the two types are not mutually exclusive.
