Cal Grant for transfers

<p>do transfer students have to do anything for the cal grant?
I'm getting mixed messages from officials at my school.
do I need to get my GPA verified? or, like a school official told me today, it automatically files a cal grant for me when I submitted my FAFSA. since I'm over 25 units??
that was the explanation I got today. </p>

<p>anybody know what to do?</p>

<p>Create an account here and it will tell you what you need to do: <a href=“CSAC - Student Landing Home”>CSAC - Student Landing Home;

<p>The GPA verification is sent in automatically (my school did it today). I tried to do it manually and they wouldn’t let me.</p>

<p>EDIT: I just checked my account and they already received the GPA verification(that was fast). It should be on there once you make an account.</p>

<p>^^^ Hey, so, I just signed up for it, and it says my “college of attendance” is UCSB. Huh? Lol. I’ve never attended a UC. </p>

<p>FAFSA and GPA verification form have been submitted according to the site.</p>

<p>Nevermind. Did some research. It just lists the first college you put down on your FAFSA. I got super excited for a second thinking that UCSB had somehow released their acceptance decision to them. Lol.</p>

<p>That’s the college that will receive the cal grant application in Fall 2013. It says UC Davis on mine.</p>

<p>EDIT: just saw your update! ha sweet</p>

<p>@mermaker omg thank you so much! so helpful! they already have my gpa verification :)</p>

<p>Do our CCs automatically submit our GPA for verification or do we have to ask them to? My GPA verification is unchecked but I did my FAFSA a long time ago.</p>

<p>any one got approved already?
I did mine on january 23 and GPA was electronically submitted Feb 14.
I checked the status at webgrants4students.org and it is still processing.</p>

<p>Yes - CalGrant, I was approved last year and renewed this cycle. </p>

<p>If you’re a CCC transfer student the cutoff for GPA is 4.0 with low-income, for the competitive grant. Insanely hard to win, actually. I was DQed the first time because I had marginal income that was actually a FAFSA error. Had to wait till next award cycle.</p>

<p>I e-mailed them and they said my financial application was sent to those colleges that I listed on Feb 11.
I guess my school submitted GPA earlier than 14th.</p>
