@LuckyName oh that’s for explaining that! I was confused because I didn’t see anything under California grants or mentioning cal grants at all. It also said I was eligible for the blue and gold program which I’m not sure about if the Cal Grant’s already been included.
Blue and Gold isn’t a specific type of grant. It’s a “promise” that your tuition will be covered in one way or another. In your case, they’re going to be covered by “university grants.” When your official award letter comes out, they will be broken up individually into “cal grant,” “university award,” etc. Remember this is just provisional and not official.
can anyone tell me how to contact the admission office? phone number? thank you

I qualified for the blue and gold program at both UCSB and UCI. If the awards are only provisional, how will you know when they are official??
Will UCI actually check if i am living off-campus if I put it down on my fafsa

FYI…For those of you who have not yet received a decision (like my son) and may still be checking this thread, I just spoke with the admissions office and there will be more decisions coming out by end of business today. Today will be the final day.
So I’m guessing by now everyone has a decision?
@cancelout @uci311 goodness, what a nightmare. I hope you two get the decisions you’re looking for, what a godawful long time to have to wait 
@poogboy I’m sorry. I gave off the wrong idea. I was waitlisted but I was curious to see who was still waiting.
@cancelout oh got it, best of luck to you then!
Guys I have a question:
I was told by a counselor that if I wanted to, once I get to UCI I could switch my major from Econ to Business Administration???
I thought Business Administration at UCI was damn near impossible to get into???
Can anyone elaborate please?
Just out of UCI discovery day- per uci staff, its possible to change major as long as its within the school you were accepted into since the pre reqs are mostly the same, changing major say from poli sci to bio would be difficult though since theres almost no overlap between them.
