If your institution has recently implemented any major financial aid policy, program, or initiative to make your institution more affordable to incoming students such as replacing loans with grants, or waiving costs for families below a certain income level please provide details:UC is committed to making it possible for all of our California undergraduates to complete college without taking out loans by 2030. The debt-free plan will cover the full cost of UC — including housing and food — through grants, scholarships and work-study. UC Santa Barbara is leading the charge with its Promise Scholars program. More information on our Promise Scholars program can be found here: https://promisescholars.sa.ucsb.edu/
