About 125 alumni scholarships ranging from $1000 a year to $5000 a year are awarded. If that is all you receive, your cost to attend UCLA per year with even the max award would be about $68,000 a year. I’d like to know what instate college has that cost to attend.
From reading this, it seems like alumni scholarship recipients might also get need based aid, but that is very unclear to me. Perhaps @Gumbymom and @ucbalumnus can clarify this.
