2024-25 Financial Aid Applications Delayed
The opening of the 2024-25 FAFSA and CADAA will be December 31 2023.
The Cal Grant priority deadline for the 2024-25 academic year has been extended to April 2, 2024 due to the delayed application opening.
If you or your family’s financial situation has changed significantly from what is reflected on your federal income tax return that was used for completing the current year (2023-2024) FAFSA (for example, you or a parent lost a job or otherwise experienced a drop in income), you may be eligible to have your financial aid eligibility adjusted (increased). To initiate this, please contact the Financial Aid office to discuss how your current financial situation has changed. Note that the school’s decision is final and cannot be appealed to the U.S. Department of Education.
