Funding for International Students at UCLA/UCSD?

[CorrelatingCausality]

Hello fellow humans!

I was wondering how the financial aid situation is for international students at UCLA and UCSD? I have heard and read that UCLA is not very welcoming to international students in this regard. Has anyone had experiences with either of the two universities?

Both schools gave multiple fully funded offers to international students this past cycle, so you should definitely apply if you are interested in their programs. The stipends are a bit lower than what private schools in the same area offer.

UCLA is a bit different in that you have to pay non-resident tuition ($15k) for your second and third year. Some students (domestic and international) got accepted with no funding.

This is all information from last year, so things might be a bit different this year.
