Scholarships
Scholarships are a type of funding that you don’t need to pay back. Need-based scholarships take a student’s financial status into account. Merit-based scholarships are awarded to students for academic or athletic achievement. You might also qualify for a scholarship based on your community service involvement, unique hobbies or traits, your personal background, or a parent’s employer or military affiliation.
Jobs
Working while in school can help lessen the burden of your student loans. Schools offer work-study programs to those who qualify and campus jobs to students looking to earn money in their free time. Some institutions match students with work-study positions, while others require them apply to the positions, like they would for any other job.
Begin your job search by checking whether your college has in-person or online job boards. Speak with professors, fellow students or career counselors for help finding a job related to your major and interests.

Special Tuition and Fee Programs, Waivers, and Exemptions
PACE Plan
The PACE Installment Plan allows students to spread the quarterly costs of tuition and fee payment over a three-month period. A fee is charged for this privilege. Information about PACE is available at the Campus Billing Services website.
Reduced-Fee Part-Time Study Program
Part-time study for credit leading to an undergraduate or graduate degree is available in some academic units. To take advantage of reduced tuition and fees for part-time status, quarterly course enrollment is limited to 10 units or fewer for undergraduate students and to eight units or fewer for graduate students. Students enrolled in excess units after Friday of the third week of instruction are liable for full tuition and fees.
The same admissions standards that apply to full-time students apply to part-time students. Under University policy, academic deans (the Dean of the Division of Undergraduate Education, for Undecided/Undeclared students; the Dean of Graduate Studies, for graduate students) may approve Petitions for Part-Time Status only for reasons of occupation, family responsibilities, or health.
Undergraduate and graduate students on approved part-time status pay the full Student Services Fee and one-half of Tuition. Those part-time students who have been determined to be nonresidents of the State of California are assessed one-half the Nonresident Supplemental Tuition, in addition to the full Student Services Fee and one-half of Tuition. Part-time students pursuing a professional degree are assessed one-half the Professional Degree Supplemental Tuition, the full Student Services Fee, and one-half of Tuition.
Part-time status lapses at the end of each academic year; therefore, a student must reapply each year that part-time status is desired. See the University Registrar’s website for more information.
Undergraduate petitions are available from academic counselors or the University Registrar’s Office; graduate students may obtain further information and petitions from the Graduate Division. All students are encouraged to consult with the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships regarding minimum unit requirements.
Tuition and Fee Reduction for Staff and Academic Employees
Students who are career employees at UCI or the University of California, Irvine Medical Center are eligible for a two-thirds reduction of the Student Services Fee, Tuition, and campus-based fees. This applies for up to nine units or three regular session University courses per quarter, whichever is greater. For staff employees, additional information and the Employee Application for Reduced Fees is available from Human Resources. Academic employees should contact the Office of Academic Personnel.
California Residency for Tuition Purposes
Information regarding University of California residence regulations for tuition purposes can be found on the University Registrar’s website.
Please note that changes may be made in the residence requirements between the publication of this statement and the relevant residence determination date. Inquiries regarding residence requirements, determination, and/or recognized exceptions should be directed to the campus Residence Deputy.
Tuition and Fee Refunds
Student Tuition and Fee Refunds
Students who pay tuition and fees for a regular academic term and then decide to withdraw from the University must submit a Withdrawal form, complete with the signature of their academic dean. Undergraduate students must submit the form to the University Registrar; graduate students to the Graduate Division; medical students to the School of Medicine’s Registrar’s Office; law students to the Law School Registrar’s Office. This form serves two purposes:
- A refund of tuition and fees, if applicable; and
- Withdrawal from classes.
The effective date of withdrawal is used in determining the percentage of tuition and fees to be refunded. This date is normally the date that the student submits the form to the appropriate dean for approval. It is presumed that no University services will be provided to the student after that date. Tuition and fees are refunded as follows.
Prior to and including the first day of instruction, tuition and fees are refunded in full, except for
- A $10 service charge for continuing and readmitted students, or the $100 Acceptance of Admission Fee for new undergraduate students, or the applicable deposit fee for new health sciences and M.B.A. students, and
- The Student Health Insurance Fee. (The Student Health Insurance Fee is refunded only if the Withdrawal form is submitted prior to the first day of the quarter.) Students should bear in mind that the “first day of the quarter” often is several days prior to the “first day of instruction.” Refer to the Academic Calendar for exact dates.
A refund of the Medical Student Disability Insurance Fee (if applicable) may be requested.
After the first day of instruction, the tuition and fee refund is prorated as shown (with the exception of the Health Insurance Fee).
Standard Refund Schedule
| Calendar days (beginning with the first day of instruction) | Refund |
|---|---|
| 1 | 100 percent |
| 2-7 | 90 percent |
