Estimated vs. Final Aid

<p>How much of a difference is the estimated aid UCR gives you to the official final aid package they give you?</p>

<p>I still haven't received my final financial aid package, but in my estimated gift aid package I'm receiving 15k.
I'm also receiving $1500 from CalGrants.</p>

<p>I haven’t received my final package either.
When do we receive it?? Do we have to do our SIR first to get it?</p>

<p>my estimated was 16030
i now am getting close to 20k
its even better!! haha</p>
