The FAFSA constitutes the basic financial aid application and is required if you wish to be considered for need based university financial aid and scholarships. To be considered on-time, the FAFSA must be submitted with parental information by the March 2 deadline (or the next business day if March 2 falls on a weekend). In addition, you may be required to submit other supporting documents. The supporting documents vary according to your particular situation. These must be submitted by the deadlines specified. The School of Medicine Financial Aid Office has created this section of its website to post outside scholarship announcements for medical students. Our goal is to build a comprehensive list of non-UCI scholarship sources for you. We are making every effort to keep this section current and appreciate your help. If you find a new source of scholarship money for medical students, please let us know. Also, if you find that there is a change of address, or if an agency or institution is no longer providing financial assistance, let us know so that we can keep an accurate and up-to-date resource for you. As always, your comments and suggestions are very much appreciated. List of outside scholarships
