Student Life Services

UCSF is committed to helping students with basic needs and food access. As a participant in the University of California Global Food Initiative, UCSF has established the Basic Needs & Food Security for Students initiative. The initiative represents the collaborative efforts of several campus units — Student Financial Aid, Student Life, and Transportation Services to assist students in order to meet their basic needs in a holistic way.

Support is available in the areas of:

• Food Access
• Housing
• Transportation

First Generation Support Services (FGSS) serves the students whose parents/caregivers did not graduate from a four-year college. Approximately 30% of UCSF students identify as First Gen, and we want to support you while you are here. FGSS offers workshops, mentoring opportunities, individual appointments, and community building events.

Student Veteran and Military Support Services serves our veteran and military connected students at UCSF with a supportive community, mentorship opportunities, guidance on educational benefits and tools to succeed both academically and personally. We value the skills, assets and experiences that military affiliated students bring to the UCSF community and are committed to helping them achieve their goals and aspirations.
