“” 9,942 is the Total Tuition and Fees from the Cal Poly site - the grant has a dollar amount and that is not it.””
you’re including fees in that. Cal Grant doesn’t cover fees. it only covers tuition.
then you say that the Cal Grant covers all of the UC tuition…yes it does…but it doesn’t cover UC fees either. at both schools you’d have to pay the couple thousand of fees.
“” She is one of those girls who has a wide variety of interests - until this summer she wanted to major in math (but did not want to teach). Then she worked with plants this summer. She is very stem oriented, but also art (but after AP Art Drawing did not want art as her career). She took some python courses and decided she did not like programming/being in an office on the computer all day. She really loved being outside for part of the day. She does not care for biology. She just tried to find a major that combined those interests.””
it sounds like she had a summer experience working with plants …what exactly did she do last summer. as someone who has 3 close relatives with Cal Poly Landscape Arch degrees, I have to say that typically people with that goal have a long prior history and it’s in their blood.
Are you sure that she’d want that as a career?
what about civil engineering or ArchE? Both of those afford a person to be outdoors for some of their days.
