UC Davis Financial Aid

Post by mlbaker » Wed Apr 06, 2011 12:03 am

So I just got my financial aid output from UC Davis. The grant from the school is 13K and there are two other grants each at 7K. My question is whether or not these figures should be similar for 2L and 3L year. Also, is this a fairly typical amount to receive, I actually wasn't expecting much.
Thanks in advance!

I got absolutely nothing despite coming from a poor family and not having any savings. Can I ask about details regarding your situation?

I am pretty taken aback by the lack of merit or need based grants offered by UC Davis.

I got the same exact amount. When I went to ASD on the 9th, this came up during the Fin Aid panel. The guy said that students typically get the same amount if not more for the following years, assuming they make even less money once they become full time students. I definitely want to get a confirmation on this though and call their office.
