<p>I was wondering if anyone could share their experiences with the Blue and Gold UC financial aid program? What amount of money did you recieve, what was your family income/size at the time, etc etc</p>
<p>UC blue and gold tries to give you the most financial aid you can to cover everything, i think because of blue and gold i got a UC grant of 12k and i recieved cal grant B. and this is more than cal grant a and b combined. I still had to take 5k in loans but I think this made a difference, and living in an apartment next year will probably reduce my need for loans.</p>
<p>thanks for the thread, its also unclear to me whether the program only waives tuition fees or it can help paying for living expenses if the cal grant covers the tuition and books costs</p>
