Answer by NotAnyoneYouKnow
The University of the Pacific has long been recognized as a leader in providing sufficient financial aid for all of their accepted students to attend the school. One of their proudest accomplishments in this regard is that they guarantee that they will double your Cal Grant (if you otherwise qualify for the Cal Grant program).
In other words, if you are eligible for a Cal Grant of say, $ 1800 a year, the University of the Pacific would match that amount, and provide you with another $ 1800 in school-funded grant money, to go with the $ 1800 you received from the State of California.
Not bad. Not bad at all.
I hope that helped.
