Giving the UCLA community a financial edge since 1951.
 

Choosing a financial institution is an important decision. You want a partner who understands the University Community exclusively and has the expertise to guide you wisely. At UCU, we offer customized financial solutions for UCLA faculty, staff, students, alumni and their immediate families. You’ll enjoy an on-campus branch in Ackerman on A-Level, across from textbooks, access to several surcharge-free ATMs on campus and at over 30,000 CO-OP ATMs nationwide. In addition, you can gain financial tips from our online, on-demand financial education modules, and convenient access to keep track of your money with online and mobile banking. As the credit union founded by Bruins, for Bruins, we add value by offering competitive pricing, the highest quality personal service, and sincere, sound advice.

 

From everyday spending to taking out loans, where you bank is a big deal. That’s why we want you to bank with your brain, because when you choose your new checking account or any one of our loans, chances are you're guaranteed to end up saving, especially with our Top 1% Best Rates in the Nation.* Plus, you could also earn up to 5.00% APY1 on your cooperatively powered University Checking Account for the banking you already do!

 

When you join UCU, you’re not just joining a high-performing, not-for-profit financial cooperative, you are joining our University Community.
