First-time financial aid applicants who have never applied for financial aid / submitted a FAFSA
*CSAC is working towards a solution to allow renewal students (students who have completed a FAFSA or CADAA in previous years) to submit a CADAA if they are facing similar challenges with the FAFSA. Once the CADAA is made available to renewal students, CSAC will follow up with students immediately through email or a phone call.

Students intending to go to a four-year university have until May 2, 2024, to complete the CADAA in order to meet the state priority deadline for state financial aid programs, such as the Cal Grant and Middle Class Scholarship. Students attending a community college have until September 2 to complete a financial aid application and be eligible for state aid
