What does this mean? Does this mean that the B&G waives my tuition and then I get 12,000 dollars from the Cal Grant on top of it? Someone teach me the ways of UC Berkeley financial aid.
No, the Cal Grant goes towards your Blue & Gold.
@MidoriGreen Wait, so what is the difference? Do I get anything other than tuition being paid off as far as benefits?
Your tuition is paid off, and it is very likely you received additional aid from the school. You should look at your financial aid letter. It tells you everything you’re predicted to receive.
