this is right. Those numbers don’t reflect the awards that got sent out with acceptances. Many high need OOS students never enrolled because their pkgs were awful, so their stats aren’t included.
Typically, the only OOS students who can afford to attend are the full pay ones.
OOS students have to pay EFC PLUS $23k plus full loans/work study. Obviously, a 0 EFC student can’t pay $23k plus full loans, etc. So, likely mostly the OOS students are ones whose families can pay the $53k per year.

Then, I thought, perhaps these numbers are just for instate students, but above it, it says that the average scholarship or grant award is 23 grand. But including Room and Board, the in-state tuition is only 27 grand. I could easily understand how some in-state student would pay this much but I just find it hard to believe that the average amount people are paying after applying for aid is only 4 grand????

The instate COA is about $32k. The UCs are very generous to instate low income students.
The UCs seem to be filled with a bunch of kids who either qualify for Blue and Gold, or are full pay.
