Why Apply?
A common myth is that many students think they won't qualify for financial aid, but
in reality, about
70% who apply do receive some assistance.
To seek aid for the 2024-2025 or 2025-2026 academic year:
- students with a valid Social Security Number (SSN) should complete the FAFSA.
- undocumented AB540 eligible students should complete the CADAA.

Mobile number and Email address in order to have multiple account recovery options
