Get Involved

Many dedicated alumni, parents, faculty and staff, students and friends have chosen to support UC San Diego students with their time and resources. Bolstering the university’s Student Affairs initiatives—from scholarships to athletics to international study—volunteers are making a world of difference to our undergraduates. You, too, can play an active role in preparing the next generation of leaders.
