Does UCSD have good financial aid for out of state? If any? My friend got accepted and his mother makes less than the cost of attendance. He didn’t see anything about FA with his acceptance.
I also got accepted from OOS. Yeah, I got $0 from San Diego for FA, so I don’t really think so.
Dang…
I got accepted OOS but I think financial aid / scholarships come with your acceptance packet you receive in the mail. I doubt I’ll get any because I’m OOS… but… there’s hope.
Run the NPC. ALWAYS run the NPC before you apply anywhere.
But no, there’s basically no financial aid for OOS applicants. Public universities admit OOS applicants for their OOS dollars, so it’d be pointless to give them scholarships unless the university wanted to attract more. In addition, there’s a mandate that UC’s not provide FA to OOS students.
I hope your friend ran NPCs on his/her other universities, and has affordable possibilities.
While there is some grant aid for OOS students, it won’t cover the full cost. The lowest I’ve heard the price go for OOS is ~$30K a year.
As of this year UCs are prohibited by state law from offering any FA to OOS students. Period. So only full pay OOS kids are now welcome to the UCs
That’s awful news!
oh man that sucks. I shouldn’t have even applied to UCs in the first place then… thanks for the heads up
