Gov. Jerry Brown is proposing to cut a state program that helps thousands of low- and middle-income California university students pay for tuition and other costs. Under Brown's revised budget plan, thousands of California college students who start their education in fall of 2013 would either be unable to qualify for a Cal Grant or would receive a much smaller grant than if they had applied this year. Currently, students who qualify and attend either the University of California or California State University systems receive enough of a grant to cover the entire cost of tuition.
