To enroll in the payment plan a down payment is required to secure your seat in lieu of full tuition payment. The remaining balance may be paid in installments during the program.
Please contact us at 310-680-1100 or paramedic@mednet.ucla.edu for more information and to schedule a payment plan appointment.
Federal Financial Aid
The Paramedic program does not participate in Title IV Federal Financial Aid Programs and therefore is not eligible for FAFSA or federal student loans. Students are encouraged to contact their local credit union or bank and inquire about private loan services they may offer to members.
