Financial Aid/Scholarships

Financial Aid Information

When should I file a FAFSA?

In general, the amount of available aid is limited, so the best time to apply for it is as soon as possible.

Currently, the soonest a FAFSA application can be filed with the Department of Education is on the October 1st preceding the academic year that you are requesting financial aid for. 

An academic year is the 12 months from July 1st to June 30th. For example, the 2022-2023 academic year begins July 1, 2022 and ends June 30, 2023.https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/fafsa

Students who do not have a Social Security Number

The California Dream Act Application allows students interested in attending eligible California Colleges, Universities and Career Education Programs to apply for state financial aid. This application is unrelated to the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. https://www.csac.ca.gov/california-dream-act
