California Applicants - Important Deadline!

<p>Today, March 2nd, is the last day to file the FAFSA to qualify for Cal Grant. The California Student Aid Commission is INFLEXIBLE with this date - if you do not file the FAFSA by midnight tonight, you will not get a Cal Grant.</p>

<p>The Cal Grant is worth $9,708 per year at USC. </p>

<p>An example: Dependent students in a family of four may have a household income up to $80,200 and assets up to $62,000 (not including home equity) and still qualify.</p>

<p>Complete income/asset details: <a href="http://www.csac.ca.gov/facts/2010-11IncomeCeilings.pdf%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.csac.ca.gov/facts/2010-11IncomeCeilings.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>***This applies to new AND returning students. If you are a current student receiving Cal Grant, you MUST file the FAFSA by today to continue to receive your grant.</p>

<p>If you have not completed your taxes, file using your best estimates TODAY. This is a hard deadline.</p>

<p>Thanks alamemom for the reminder.
(Although I’m not a Cali applicant…)</p>
