Conditions worth reading twice
Enrolled as a full-time UCLA transfer student for the upcoming academic year (all current transfers eligible), "Good Academic Standing (GPA = 2.0 or greater)," and demonstrated financial need per UCLA Financial Aid determination. Three of ten scholarships are reserved for Non-Traditional Transfer Students age 25+, a set-aside/preference rather than a gate on the general pool.
