Financial Aid and Scholarships

The total Cost Of Attendance (COA) at UCLA includes tuition, fees, housing costs, food, books, and transit. We have compiled information about Typical Housing Costs. This gives you an idea of housing prices near UCLA.

Your choice of HOUSING OPTION affects you COA. It is used to determine the maximum amount of financial aid given. For example, living in the residence halls will cost more than living at home. This means your choice of housing affects the total sticker price of attending of UCLA.

IF YOUR HOUSING PLANS CHANGE, please inform the Financial Aid and Scholarships Office, so your aid can be recalculated.

The Financial Aid and Scholarships office does NOT determine RESIDENCE STATUS. The UCLA Campus Residence Deputy decides your Residence Status for Tuition purposes. For more information regarding Residence for Tuition Purposes, please visit the Registrar’s Office website.

Some or all instruction may be ONLINE. Tuition and mandatory fees will NOT BE REFUNDED in the event any instruction occurs remotely.
