FINANCIAL AID
UC Santa Cruz is a NCAA Division III University, which means that we do not offer Athletics scholarships. You can apply for financial assistance through the Financial Aid Office. 


ADMISSIONS
You also might need to contact the Admissions Office in order to make sure that you have fulfilled the necessary requirements. 


HOW TO CONTACT A COACH
The Athletics Staff Directory will provide you with a list of all department coaches and how to best contact them (either by mail, email, phone or by filling out an on-line questionnaire). Please note that, per NCAA Recruiting Guidlines, we can only respond to e-mails from seniors and juniors (after September 1) in high school and we will mail responses to freshmen and sophomores within NCAA rules only.
