UCSF Increases Scholarships, Loans for Its Undocumented Students

The high cost of a health professions education is a concern for many students, but the burden can be particularly heavy for undocumented students, who have fewer avenues for financial support. That inequity has led UC San Francisco to add new scholarships and loans that double the University’s support for its undocumented students.

For each student, UCSF will increase its need-based scholarship funding from an average of $20,000 to an average of $40,000, depending on program of study, and its university loan from $10,000 to $20,000. The increases are effective immediately.
