ÐÇ¿ÕÎÞÏÞ´«Ã½'s initiative to increase the affordability of an ÐÇ¿ÕÎÞÏÞ´«Ã½ education for low- and middle-income California families.
Introduced in 2021, ÐÇ¿ÕÎÞÏÞ´«Ã½'s Cal Grant Promise is designed to help California residents with the cost of an ÐÇ¿ÕÎÞÏÞ´«Ã½ education. Students who qualify for a will have 100% of their tuition covered by the College.
Because ÐÇ¿ÕÎÞÏÞ´«Ã½ meets 100% of every student’s demonstrated need based on the total cost of attendance, for many students, a significant portion of the cost of room and board will also be covered by grant aid. With this level of financial support, the cost of an ÐÇ¿ÕÎÞÏÞ´«Ã½ education can be comparable to that of a state college or university.
We strongly encourage every prospective student from California to use our Quick Cost Estimators to determine their eligibility for need-based aid. Once you have received your calculation results, we encourage families to apply to ÐÇ¿ÕÎÞÏÞ´«Ã½ and complete the full financial aid application.
