FAFSA/DREAM Application
A new FAFSA must be filed every year starting October 1st. The Cal Grant deadline (through the FAFSA/Dream application) is March 2nd of every year. It is one application to apply for a Pell Grant, a Cal Grant, and Fee Waiver and it is by filing the FAFSA. Please read more on Cal Grants.
If you are filling out the DREAM application, it must be filed no later than March 2 of each year. But if you missed the March 2 deadline, you can file it at any time.

2019-2020 FAFSA is for a Fee Waiver for summer 2019, fall 2019, & spring 2020, Pell grant for fall 2019, spring 2020, summer 2020 (if eligible)

Year-Round Pell Grants
The U.S. Department of Education has recently implemented Year-Round Pell Grants, allowing students to receive up to 150% of a regular grant award over the course of the academic year (fall, spring, and summer) so that they can continue taking classes in the summer and finish their degrees faster than they would otherwise. Click here for more information regarding Year-Round Pell Grants.

Helpful Tip:

If you cannot find your Financial Aid Information on the Zone or CLASS-Web.

Reasons may be:

• You have NOT completed your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or DREAM Application or you have completed the incorrect aid year
• You have NOT entered our College/ Federal School Code (030357) in your submitted FAFSA or DREAM Application
• You have completed your FAFSA but we have NOT received it. It takes approximately 7-10 days after your FAFSA submission for us to retrieve your information (The DREAM Application takes much longer.)

Always double check:

• Make sure you have completed the correct FAFSA for the appropriate Financial Aid Year.
• Submit your FAFSA by using your FSA ID
