Overview
- The board meets at UCLA on Wednesday as student governments and the UC Student Association plan protests across all nine undergraduate campuses.
- The renewal would keep cohort-based tuition freezes for up to six years while capping annual increases at 5% and allowing unused authority to be banked for later years.
- The proposal would cut the share of tuition directed to financial aid to 40%, with a stated goal of moving toward 33% over time.
- A 1% add-on above inflation would be earmarked for capital improvements under the plan.
- UC estimates 54% of California resident undergraduates would see increases offset by aid, while many families earning over $120,000 would face higher net costs.
