it doesn’t hurt to apply and see how much FA UCLA offer u. But far as I know, the cost for outstate is about 27000 for tuition only + about 8000 at least for living and other expenses(subject to be increased) while the financial aid not likely to exceed 17000 (grant) anyhow. You may make up the rest by making loan

Also need to say that, except rich private Us, I think Public Us have similar standard for FA offering, and usually they don’t have large variance in FA packages for a student. I got FA from UCD, UCSC and UCLA, and the variances were so small that I couldn’t remember how “small” they were
