<p>OK so i couldnt apply to Alumni Scholarship because when I was putting it together i realized one of my teacher's letter of recs wasn't signed and it was during our ski break. </p>
<p>But I applied to Regents and got it.</p>
<p>I am choosing between several schools and fin aid is a HUUUUUGE factor.</p>
<p>How much can i expect to pay?</p>
<p>Well no one can tell you anything unless you provide them with information...</p>
<p>(in state/out of state, EFC if you applied for FAFSA, etc)</p>
<p>Im in state (YAY)
got no CAL Grant (NOooo)
and my FAFSA EFC i remember was around 3000 (YAY (?))</p>
<p>I got a EFC for all my other colleges except berk and LA
how the heck are we supposed to check? i dont understand/have the instructions</p>
<p>Congratulations on getting Regents!</p>
<p>The way I understand it is....</p>
<p>COA (cost of attendance) - EFC = need</p>
<p>Not all schools meet 100% of need, but in my son's experience, the UCs were pretty generous in meeting 100% of his need with a combination of grants/scholarships, loans and work study.</p>
<p>My son received the Regents Scholarship at UCI and they met 100% of his need with grants/scholarships (no loans or work study).</p>
<p>stingystooge, I believe you should be able to check your provisional finaid package on the finaid website for UCLA which is <a href="http://www.fao.ucla.edu%5B/url%5D">www.fao.ucla.edu</a></p>
