More than half of the students participating in UC San Diego Global Seminars receive financial aid, and there are also a range of scholarships available. You should take the initiative to figure out how you will pay for your program before you even apply. Below is a list of resources to help you research your financial options.
* Note: Many universities on the semester system require students to receive 6 semester units (9 quarter units) during the summer in order to be eligible for financial aid. UCSD Global Seminar coursework is worth 8 quarter units. Check with your Financial Aid Office about this requirement.
These are the most common scholarships for Global Seminar participants.
