Beginning fall 2022, the University of California, Santa Cruz is implementing the Board of Regents' Tuition Stability Plan. The plan helps students and families budget for a UC education by keeping UC tuition stable and predictable and providing new resources for financial aid. For more information, please visit UC Tuition Stability Plan.
This chart includes separate tabs with student fees delineated by year admitted to the university. A student who started at UC Santa Cruz in academic year 2022-23, would use the Enrolled in Academic Year 2022-23 tab to determine their fees, while a student who started at UCSC in academic year 2021-22 would use the Enrolled in Academic Year 2021-22 or Earlier tab.
For information on undergraduate cost of attendance and associated budgets, please visit Cost of Attendance, hosted by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarship.
