There are many federal and state student financial aid programs that can help make college more affordable. In California, students can apply using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the California Dream Act Application (CADAA), depending on their eligibility. If you’re unsure which application is right for you, please review the eligibility requirements for each application. We encourage all students to apply early to maximize their opportunities for available aid.
