Other State Grants at UCI
Make sure to review the additional state grants you may be eligible for once you've explore all the federal and University of California options. These grants are focused on specific student groups, including students who were formerly in foster care, active members of state reserve groups, family of California law enforcement, and more.
California Kids Investment and Development Savings Program (CalKIDS)
The California Kids Investment and Development Savings Program (CalKIDS) was launched in 2022 by the State of California with a clear mission: make it easier for more children to save for their future education.
Administered by the ScholarShare Investment Board, CalKIDS takes the initiative by automatically offering newborns and eligible low-income public school children in California an initial seed deposit, along with other potential financial incentives. This ensures that they can start their college and career savings journey right from the beginning.
