<p>I was wondering if the amount that My Awards says I will be receiving, is the amount of financial aid EXCLUDING tuition? In other words, if the total amount of financial aid I will be receiving is the amount after tuition is paid for? I know this may sound kind of stupid, but I am really paranoid now because I found housing and already rejected a loan offer, and so now I am unsure if I can even pay for it all. I am basically getting a full ride to UCD with my EFC being 0. Excluding loans, I will be receiving about $17,600 on just the several grants. So Im just wondering if that 17K is for my housing, books, and other living costs, and NOT my tuition (and tuition for UCD for the 2010-2011 year is about 13K?). I tried calling the financial aid office but because its summer, I keep calling after they close, and they close at 2pm! If anyone can help me.. that would be great! </p>
<p>Also, I qualify for the Blue and Gold plan, and if someone can help me understand that, that woul dbe awesome!</p>
