<p>If I didnt qualify for a Cal grant this year because my income was over the limit, can I qualify for one next year if my income goes down?</p>
<p>Yes you should as long as you haven’t passed the units limit. </p>
<p>If your at UCLA and your family income was below $80k for 2011, then you should still get the B&G promise. So, the school would give UC grants to make up for the loss of Cal Grants.</p>
<p>Was your family’s income below $80k?</p>
<p>What is your EFC?</p>
<p>Have you gotten you FA pkg? what’s in it?</p>
<p>In 2011, my income was $81K, but some of that income stopped this year. So next year when I do fafsa it should be well under 80k. Will I still qualify for Cal Grant?</p>
<p>Cal grant numbers are different than Blue and Gold. </p>
<p>Cal Grants have different income thresholds based on family size. </p>
<p>What was in the FA pkg?</p>
<p>I got a university grant/scholarship for 9.6K, and that was it</p>
<p>???</p>
<p>You should have also gotten student loans. Are you a soph or junior? </p>
<p>if you didn’t get student loans, call and ask for some.</p>
<p>Do you work during the school year and summer?</p>
<p>Missing out on Blue and Gold or Cal Grant was a loss of about $4-6k for you. You wouldn’t have gotten the $10k UC grant and also Cal Grant/Blue & Gold. </p>
<p>how will you pay the difference?</p>
<p>if you don’t have the means to pay, then you might ask to take a year off so that next year’s aid will be higher.</p>
