Cars/eft?

<p>when i log into myBerkeleyApplication, it says that i have to sign up for EFT by august 15. what is EFT and is it mandatory that i sign up for it?</p>

<p>also is my CARS account something that i sign up for, or something that i automatically have as a berkeley student?</p>

<p>Cars is your billing... you automatically have it. You don't have to sign up for EFT. It's useful if you have scholarships that got to Cal and you want them to send the money to you; it's quicker than waiting for a check. :)</p>
