#StriveToThrive Scholarships Campaign

We are on a mission to help our students thrive during their time at UCLA and beyond.

A college education can change how people see the world, expand their potential, and provide a new sense of purpose. Your gift today will help provide inspiring students the confidence and connection to pursue their passions and fully immerse themselves in their education. From pursuing undergraduate research to participating in student organizations, your support allows our students the opportunity to take advantage of all our world-class university has to offer.

UCLA stands apart in our commitment to providing pathways for a better future for individuals from all backgrounds and life experiences. By supporting this campaign, you are contributing to the future of UCLA and the future of our society by helping Bruins emerge as well-rounded individuals who are ready to change the world. With the cost of living and education increasing over the years and wages remaining stagnant, students face significant financial challenges that may deter them from pursuing four-year degrees. With your scholarship support, we can continue to promote equitable access to our world-class university and ensure our students are supported throughout their time on campus and beyond. 

As Chancellor Block likes to say, “UCLA is public in its DNA.” Bruins are leaders in the global community and embody UCLA’s mission of education, research and service in all we do. As a public, land-grant institution, our student population reflects our city’s and our country’s diverse demographics. Our students already share a unique passion for giving back and making the world a better place with 75% of our undergraduate students participating in community service and many more pursuing careers that will benefit our greater society. Your gift today will support all Bruins who will go on to become our innovators, leaders and change-makers of tomorrow. Together, we can effect real societal change. 

Beyond financial assistance, your scholarship support gives students confidence, community and a sense of belonging at our incredible institution. 

We have much to be proud of, but we are always striving to do more for our students! Students everywhere are facing the consequences of the rising cost of higher education, but your scholarship support will help ensure our Bruins can attend and flourish at UCLA. Today, you can help make a real difference in the fight for education access and help our students thrive.

On behalf of our students, thank you for your support! You are helping our students not only come to UCLA, but helping them make the most of their time on campus as they go on to make an impact on our communities through innovation, diplomacy and ingenuity. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of our students, our city and our world.
