As you can see, UCLA\u2019s total financial support is much lower than those offered by competitors, which offer in dollar terms 15 to 78 percent more, with only Wisconsin offering less.

When adjusted for cost of living, UCLA offers by far the lowest, and UCLA\u2019s competitors offer from 25 precent more to more than double. Even considering only the \u201cbase\u201d stipend or salary (in the third column of the table), UCLA\u2019s offer is much less than offers from private universities.
