Resources for Native American Students
UC is committed to supporting Native American students. Each campus has a unique portfolio of programs, resources and academic offerings that engage the full participation of American Indians throughout the course of their undergraduate and graduate education.
UC's Native American Opportunity Plan
UC’s Native American Opportunity Plan ensures that in-state systemwide Tuition and Student Services Fees are fully covered for California students who are also enrolled in federally recognized Native American, American Indian and Alaska Native tribes. This plan applies to undergraduate and graduate students.
