Staff Directory

Welcome to the Financial Aid Staff Directory!

The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships welcomes the opportunity to assist you in making a quality education affordable. We encourage students and families to contact us by phone to 831-459-2963 or by visiting in person to 201 Hahn Student Services for more immediate support. However, you may also email our advising team to finaid@ucsc.edu and include your student ID number. Note that it can take up to 72 business hours for a response during standard times, and 7-10 business days during peak periods.
