Cal Grants delayed with state budget woes

The disbursement of this academic year’s Cal Grants, state funds that are awarded to undergraduates who meet the GPA and income requirements, is being held up by a continued delay in the California state budget.

According to City College Public Information Officer Amanda Davis, 232 applicants were chosen from this campus to receive grants, based on income and GPA criteria. However, historically, the state has not funded any grant programs until the state budget has passed.

While the Los Rios Community College District has advanced Cal Grant funding to students who use it to pay tuition and fees, those who receive checks for books and living expenses have not yet been paid according to Davis.

“While we can’t speculate, both the district and college staff work very hard to support students in pursuing their educational goals during tough budget times and always,” Davis said.
