Giving to Eureka! Scholarships

Your support of undergraduate scholarships is more important than ever! 

Generosity from friends and alumni like you provides Biological Science students with great opportunities like the Eureka! Scholars program. Every gift helps make a difference!

You can change a student's life today with a gift of $3,500*, one full Eureka! summer scholarship.   But all gifts really make a difference because we can pool gifts from alumni and friends together to fund more Eureka! Scholars. As Biology alumna Wendy Kwok, ’99, says, “Individual gifts unite as a pool for greater impact.”

Eureka! Scholarship Endowment

If you would like to make a greater and everlasting impact, you might consider giving to the Eureka! Scholarship Endowment. By investing a minimum of $95,000**, you can create a permanent and named Eureka! scholarship with your endowment gift. Your Eureka! scholarship will be awarded as, for example, The Smith Family Eureka! Scholar, to a highly deserving student every year, forever!

By establishing a permanent Eureka! scholarship at UC San Diego, you are giving a life-transforming gift to exceptionally bright and motivated emerging scientists, and helping to create your legacy within the Division of Biological Sciences.
