Scholarships for Promising Students

Our undergraduates are the leaders and innovators of tomorrow. But with only 6.6 percent of UC San Diego’s total revenues come from the State of California funds for education, UC San Diego is challenged to offer enough scholarships that ensure access and affordability for promising students.

Together with dedicated alumni, parents, faculty, staff and friends like you, we will help talented and deserving students receive a world-class education—one that will allow them to pursue their hopes and dreams and create a future of which we can all be proud.

You can help support UC San Diego students with a wide range of scholarships:

	Merit/Need Scholarships		Research Scholarships		Study Abroad/ International Scholarships
	Transfer Student Scholarship		Scholarships for Former Foster Youth		Alumni Scholarships
	Corporate Scholarships		Veterans Scholarship Fund Information		Diversity Award for Undergraduates

Each type of scholarship provides an opportunity to give to a general fund or to create a personally named endowment, which remains in perpetuity. To view a complete listing of our scholarship endowments, click here.

You can create a personally named endowed scholarship by contacting Kim Signoret-Paar at kspaar@ucsd.edu or (858) 822-1536. You may also make a secure online gift by clicking here.
