Donna L. Baer Scholarship

With preference to Palestinian students, the Donna L. Baer Scholarship was established in 2020 to provide scholarship support toward college costs for UCLA undergraduates with little to no assets pursuing a bachelor’s degree. Payments continue as long as recipients maintain an average 2.5 GPA while pursuing a bachelor’s degree in at least one of the following majors: Engineering (all types), Physics, Chemistry (and Biochemistry), Mathematics, Botany, Biology (all types), Astrophysics, Astronomy, Aerospace, Anesthesiology, Anthropology, Archeology, Architecture, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, Bioengineering, Computer Science, Dentistry, Medicine, Environmental Science, Epidemiology, Genetics or Neuroscience. Applicants must demonstrate high financial need as determined by the UCLA Financial Aid & Scholarships office. Scholarship payments support immediate needs in terms of college costs, specifically tuition, room and board at UCLA, including books, fees and other expenses associated with the pursuit at UCLA of a bachelor’s degree.
