As a First Generation applicant, you will get a small bump in admissions but not enough if you are not academically qualified for these schools in the first place.

UC’s and CSU’s do not offer much in the way of merit scholarships but offer good need-based financial aid if you are a California resident and your income qualifies you for Cal grants and Federal aid.

What are your stats, EC’s and test scores? What CSU’s and UC’s are you targeting?

Do you know your EFC and are you low income?
