Dear supporters,
Your gift to UCLA Study Broad has already helped dozens of students kickstart their international journeys! We recently hosted a "Passport Caravan" where students were able to start their passport application process right here on campus. Over the course of the day, participating students completed and submitted passport applications with the in-person help of passport agents — and had all associated fees covered thanks to your generous support. Staff members were also on hand to answer questions, provide support and encouragement and distribute free passport covers, luggage tags and stickers. Students were thrilled!
“I’m a low-income, first-generation student and this event really helped me out, because I got an internship in Japan,” said Kevin Tran, a second-year majoring in electrical engineering. “I’ve never traveled outside of America so I’m really excited to see how different everything — architecture, food, life — is in Japan.”
For Scarlett Guzman, a second-year majoring in political science, the opportunity to study abroad in Paris and Amsterdam later this year inspired her to take this big step, especially since neither she nor her parents have ever been outside the U.S.
“I didn’t know how you even applied for a passport and I’m basically paying for all this myself, so I was grateful to get this help,” Guzman said. “Now I’m even thinking of potentially signing up for the Spain Travel Study next year, too.”
Your generous gift made this event possible, and this is only the beginning. Your investment will also fund scholarships and cover program and application fees for these and other students traveling this summer. We look forward to sharing their stories with you. Thank you again!

Dear friends, alumni, students and parents,
We are blown away at the generosity of our community! Together, we have reached our goal of raising $15,000 for UCLA Study Abroad scholarships, and even unlocked a $10,000 matching gift thanks to a generous fellow suporter. That means a total of $25,000 is now available to support UCLA students on their life-changing global journeys!
Your support will directly provide scholarships that make studying abroad a reality for students who may not otherwise have the opportunity. Because of you, Bruins will have the chance to explore new cultures, expand their perspectives, and bring their experiences back to UCLA.
Thank you for being a part of this incredible effort. We couldn’t have done it without you!
With gratitude,
The UCLA Study Abroad Team
