<p>As long as you meet all the other requirements, you should. Please note that sometimes the amount will be reduced by other FA that maybe offered. </p>

<p>“Under the plan, your systemwide fees will be fully covered by scholarship or grant money if you are in your first four years at UC (two if you’re a transfer student).
The plan combines all sources of scholarship and grant awards you receive (federal, state, UC and private) to count toward covering your fees. If, for example, you receive Pell and Cal Grants and private scholarships that don’t fully cover your fees, UC grant money will make up the difference.”</p>
<p>We didn’t qualify for Cal Grants and other aid so my sons offer was about 9K I believe (before fees went up). He’s not going to a UC, so am trying to do from memory. Good luck!</p>
<p>Note: Unfortunately, we found the FA for UCs to be not so great. Not their fault…no money. Hopefully yours will be better. Some of the UCs also have program/merit scholarships depending upon your major.</p>
