Cal Grant

Job Titles:
  • Financial Aid Advisor II
The amount of the award is based on enrollment status (full-time, 3/4 time, or half-time). As with all Cal Grant programs, students can receive this award for a maximum of four years of full-time study (Foster Youth in the Cal Grant B program may receive up to 8 years of full-time study). IMPORTANT!! Students who graduated from high school a year prior and have not received a Cal Grant are responsible to submit their GPA again to CSAC prior to March 2nd for Cal Grant consideration. These students must not rely on the GPA the high schools sent to CSAC during their senior year. If you're mailing any forms to CSAC, be sure to get a Certificate of Mailing from the Post Office as proof you met the March 2nd deadline. If you'll be attending a California Community College in the fall and you missed the March 2 Cal Grant application deadline, you have a second opportunity to apply for a Cal Grant by September 2. Since the number of awards available in September is limited, you should try to meet the March 2 deadline. For information regarding your Cal Grant, go online to www.csac.ca.gov or call 888-224-7268. For support by Email studentsupport@csac.ca.gov Within one year after you graduate. Even if you have to go straight to work before going to college, you don't have to miss out on a Cal Grant.

Cal Grant B

Important! If you have been awarded a Cal Grant B, please create an account or login to WebGrants 4 Students. https://mygrantinfo.csac.ca.gov/ If you are transferring/or still have a few more semesters here and your remaining eligibility is at or close to 200% (2 years left), you may want to place your Cal Grant on hold/take a Leave of Absense.

Cal Grant C

Cal Grant C Supplement Form: Once you are on the Cal Grant main page, click on the link that indicates "Cal Grant C Supplement Form". When you have completed the questions, including the correct school you will be transferring to in the fall, electronically submit the information to CSAC. This information will be processed and your account will be updated in a timely manner. You must have an eligible program and it must be a CTE program for the Cal Grant C award.
