<p>Okay so I got Cal Grant B - the $1,551 dollars</p>
<p>I have 2 quick questions.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>The $1,551, is that per semester, or for both 1st and 2nd semester?</p></li>
<li><p>How do I use my Cal Grant award to pay for my remaining fees for college? Financial aid covered most of my costs but I still need to pay a remaining $1,300 dollars.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>the 1,551 is for each semester. So you will receive that same amount in the fall and once again in the spring.
Cal Grant is part of the financial aid package given to you so Im not quite sure what ur question is. If ur financial aid doesn’t full cover your fees then you will need to either take out a loan or pay for fees yourself.</p>
<p>Where does it say $1,551 is for each semester.</p>
<p>Also is it true that the amount of award given increases next year?</p>
<p>My question is how do I get the Cal Grant money to pay off the remaining fees for my 1st semester.</p>
<p>Like how do I use it?</p>
<p>I don’t see it in my college account online. But I see it on the Cal Grant website.</p>
<p>I thought the 1551 is an annual amount, divided up per semester/quarter.<br>
That would be nice to be wrong! You
will receive that separately either as a check or direct deposit (your school
would have to tell you that). But you then can use that money however you
want - to buy books, a computer, or pay it back to the financial aid office
to cover your balance due.</p>
