<p>Got my efan today but am a bit confused.
This is all an estimate righT? Because I'm pretty sure my housing does not cost that much and I'm waiving the health insurance thing. Plus registration fees/books supllies can be lower right?
How do we say how much we need in the loans until we know for sure how much everything is going to cost?
Thanks in advance!!!</p>
<p>are you a CA resident? if you are, then your total fees for this coming year is $11,867.94. If you don’t need Medical insurance, then deduct $1,087.14 from that total. What kind of housing did you get? Double or triple? and will you be in a hall or plaza? Books&supplies usually cost around $500@quarter.</p>
<p>did anyone else notice the decrease in aid?
not necessarily decrease but with the increased tuition
the aid remains the same as the former years…
that means more loans
god i hate this</p>
<p>me too… i wish they can offer me more subsidized loans instead of unsubsidized loans… goddamit</p>
<p>do we have to pay the full fees of $11, 867 this fall? or a little each quarter?</p>
<p>@AH2008 - that fee is divided into three quarters</p>
<p>Cali resident. But it seems like they’re charging me more than I’ll need.
I mean they don’t really know how much everything is going to cost so how can we say how many loans we need?
I have a triple plaza, with 14p, no health insurance. And I plan on renting my textbooks, don’t really need them after do I?
How are registration fees determined? Per class or all at once or what??
thanks</p>
<p>^ About registration fees. You just pay a “flat fee” so long as you’re considered full-time. (There’s a different fee for at least half time.) </p>
<p>Of course, these don’t include course “improvement fees” that they charge in the middle of the quarter depending on class kind (in my experience, math & science classes) and by unit. ~$40 per unit I believe.</p>
<p>Typically, the eFan is generally more than you need. From what I can tell, they calculate it so that the “Cost of Attendance” for the year is met. It’s based on what the average (I think) spends. Of course, being short on your student fees is the worst possible situation. (Classes get dropped, etc) Just only accept the amount you need, and maybe some extra in case you lose your book, or get you laptop stolen.</p>
<p>Yea, UCLA expects you to tally your own expenses (welcome to being an adult!). Here are the university fees (note the the column says by quarter so multiply by 3 for total expense):
[Fees:</a> Fall Quarter](<a href=“http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/fees/fall10fee.htm]Fees:”>http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/fees/fall10fee.htm)
And here is your total housing fee:
[Residential</a> Plaza Triple Room, Private Bath Rates 2010-2011 (1004365)](<a href=“http://map.ais.ucla.edu/go/1004365]Residential”>http://map.ais.ucla.edu/go/1004365)
which is $13,227 for you, I believe.</p>
<p>THANKS! That clears most things up. :)</p>
<p>ah, thank you so much!</p>
<p>so how do we deduct the insurance thing if we have insurance ?</p>
<p>yeah i was also wondering how we can waive the insurance?</p>
<p>EDIT:</p>
<p>is the insurance even worth it? what would it cover?
can it pay for new glasses? 8]</p>
<p>You go to the Ashe center website, under new bruins, and click waive SHIP. There’s a few things you fill out. Apparently you have to have an adequate insurance plan in order to waive UCLA’s. You’ll save $1087 per year. You should really read all the info. It’s highly confuddling…</p>
<p>Do university apartments (Margan, Glenrock West, etc) count as on-campus housing? Or is that off-campus?</p>
<p>margan, glenrock etc., count as OFF CAMPUS housing…</p>

Loans sub rose by 1 k
