<p>UCSD already posted up theirs for accepted students… when will UCI?</p>
<p>Another ques: is UCI generous with grants? ergh, i hope they give me more grants than loans >.< and my EFC is like 1,630 or something of the sort.</p>
<p>I think it will be in early April (15th) or so…</p>

Are you dorming or commuting? If you’re commuting then I can tell you for sure that they’ll be paying for all of your fees and books through grants (you’ll have to cover gas, etc). If you’re dorming / living in an off campus apt. then you might have to take out some loans.</p>

<p>You should expect around $8000+ cal grant, 3000+ pell grant, and some sort of UCI grant (ranges from 0-3000), +750 academic grant (depends on your school I think?) </p>
<p>this is assuming you filled out the FAFSA on time.
If you are dorming, expect to take out 9000+ in direct loans (subsidized & unsubsidized) + plus loans.</p>
<p>If we qualify for the Blue and Gold Opportunity Plan will all UCI give us is money toward tuition? With the Cal Grant and Pell Grant my family can afford tuition, it’s the other expenses like room and board, etc that we’re worried about.</p>
<p>well, so far, i know that i’m getting 10k in calgrants from UCI, because i already got that in the mail… and 4,000 in pellgrants. and would they give me a bit more because i have another sister who’s in college right now? .__.</p>
<p>ponsticks, when did you get the financial packages from them? i was accepted in february but still havent heard anything about financial aid yet</p>
<p>oh no, it’s just that on my calgrants paper, it said i’d get 10,302 for Irvine</p>
