So the reason why you received the BOG Fee Waiver is that you recently submitted an FAFSA application which qualifies you for both state and federal funding once you are approved. While FAFSA is free federal money to provide you financial assistance going to college, BOG is a form of state aid/funding that pays for your enrollment fees as a California resident. You can pretty much say that you applied to two separate student aid grants with only one application.
