California College Promise Grant (CCPG) – Berkeley City College

This state assistance program waives enrollment fees for eligible California residents attending community college. It is designed to make higher education accessible by removing the financial barrier of tuition costs. To qualify and maintain eligibility, students must meet established income standards, maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average, and successfully complete more than half of their attempted coursework. Foster youth who are twenty-four years old or younger are exempt from the academic and progress standards. Eligible students do not receive a direct cash payment; instead, their enrollment fees are waived directly through the college's financial system.
