Must file a 2020-2021 FAFSA for Summer 2021 financial aid and 2021-2022 FAFSA to receive financial aid for Fall 2021 through Summer 2022 (UCI school code is: 00131400). If you already have a 2020-21 FAFSA on file DO NOT make any changes to it. This applies to undergraduate students who are currently enrolled at a UC, CalState or any other university/college.

Here is the link to a recording of the financial aid information session held on 4/29: https://uci.zoom.us/rec/share/btgONENPvnSZQpBUA8s100KJVS6vroSXwFsBW2uIDsOFi84rqP5wfDYof_cUoTCh.i8TXiAG6RaYRuEsC
The UCI Financial Aid Office wanted me to remind you of a few things:
1. The UCI Financial Aid Office does NOT process these forms or determine eligibility.
2. Approval of the G-44 form is solely done by CSAC. The UCI Financial Aid Office has to wait for the commission to include eligible students on a roster before awards are given.
3. Students should read the eligibility requirements listed on the G44 before signing and follow the instructions on the form for how and where to send it. Students have to affix manual “wet signatures” since CSAC is not accepting e-signatures for this form.
4. If the G44 is approved, Cal grant funds are not applied for summer MAT awards. However, it is best to apply early because this is the busiest time for CSAC and they process documents in the order they are received.
5. When completing the form you can list 6/30/22 as the date you are applying for and being issued your preliminary credential.
Science and Math candidates will get an opportunity to apply to be part of a year-long residency program in Santa Ana Unified School District. Residents receive partial tuition reimbursement.
