STATE GOVERNMENT
The University of California is chartered as an instrumentality of the State of California and approximately 90% of students enrolled in the academic programs of the campus are considered residents of the state for tuition purposes. UCLA continues to rely heavily on state appropriations amounting to $531,068,000 in the 1999-'00 fiscal year to maintain its basic academic programs. Also, the state, including lottery funds, contributed $45,972,000 toward special programs in such areas as financial aid, tobacco-related diseases, breast cancer, AIDS research and education-improvement outreach programs. In addition to the funds received directly from the state budget, UCLA’s contractual research and training agreements with various state agencies, including California Health and Human Services, California Social Services, and California Business, Transportation and Housing Agency, reached $12,983,000.
