2017-18 Cal Grant and Scholarship Deadline Fast Approaching – File Your DREAM Application or FAFSA and Scholarship application by March 2, 2017!

Mon, 27 February, 2017 at 10:33 am

The Financial Aid Office would like to remind and encourage all students to file their 2017-18 CA Dream Act (CADAA) or FAFSA financial aid applications and Cañada Scholarship Application by March 2, 2017.

We encourage all DREAMER (undocumented/AB 540) students to apply for or renew their CA Dream Act Applications. We would like to emphasize all information included in your application is kept confidential and safe by the California Student Aid Commission and is used specifically to award and grant state financial aid.

All FAFSA filers are similarly encouraged to renew their applications by March 2, 2017! Federal aid can be applied for year-round but missing the March 2 deadline will limit access to Cal Grants and other state funded programs.

The California Student Aid Commission will not share application data with any other government officials or agencies and are committed to protecting all student information under the law.

The deadline to apply for ALL Cal Grant Entitlement programs in March 2, 2017. Please do not miss this important deadline to receive Cal Grants!

If you have any concerns or questions, please contact our office and we would be more than happy to assist you. If you need assistance in completing your CA Dream Act Application or FAFSA, our office hosts weekly workshops.
