Student Housing Reservation Fee Offset UC Davis

UC Davis used data to identify a problem: the percentage of students eligible for student housing reservation fee waivers was much higher than the percent of students applying for them. Operational changes have enabled the process to become automated and removed bias and stigma, while significantly increasing usage (34% of students received an automatic fee waiver in 2023 compared to 3% prior to the intervention).
