Gifts enable the Office of Student Affairs to maintain student wellness, continuity of instruction, and student activities. Additionally, it allows us to support students' critical needs by providing emergency grants of up to $1,000 for food, housing, health care, technology, and more.

Clinical Education Support Fund
Support provides our students with opportunities to supplement their education through direct client service, policy clinics and sophisticated simulations. These clinics provide unparalleled experiences working with clients and communities to address urgent problems, influence public policy, and improve the quality of legal problem-solving.

Faculty Research and Support Fund
UCLA Law faculty are among the most prominent legal scholars in the nation. Contributions to the Faculty Research and Support Fund enable us to recruit and retain leading educators and support their path-breaking scholarship.

Law Library & Technology Support Fund
