“As a first-generation student, the Pell Grant has been pivotal in my access to a college education. It has helped ease the burden of my student loans and helped me better provide for my needs while I pursue my degree.”
Henry “Adrian” Rozo
UC Davis, 2025
Double the Pell
Cost shouldn’t stop anyone from going to college. It’s time to increase federal financial aid. We’re asking legislators to double the maximum Pell Grant award.
Hand-in-hand with California
When UC and California come together, we make our communities better. Public higher education is key to California’s prosperity.
Federal Partnership
Every day UC creates groundbreaking research, develops new health care solutions, and opens doors for students. None of it would be possible without federal funding.
