• Blue + Gold Opportunity Plan offers substantial additional support for particularly under-resourced students who get admitted to a University of California school.
• University Opportunity Program (UOP) offers substantial additional support for particularly under-resourced students who get admitted to a Cal State University school. 

The bottom line is that if an under-resourced student can get accepted into a UC school, they can combine a Cal Grant, Pell Grant, and the Blue + Gold Opportunity Plan to finance their education without incurring too much debt. 

Similarly, if an under-resourced student can get accepted into a Cal State University school, they can combine a Cal Grant, Pell Grant, and the University Opportunity Program to finance their education without incurring too much debt.

All the best,
