<p>So I am going to community college and got a fee waiver. I was wondering if I could still get grant money from my fafsa and if I would be able to keep it. I was also woundering the same thing for my cal grant B. I heard that I could not keep government money if all of my expenses are paid for.</p>
<p>After your school recieves your reward, they use it to pay for your enrollment fees, anything that is left over is yours to keep. As for the fee waver…if you fill out a fafsa, the fee waver automatically gets filled out (or it does at my school).</p>
<p>I don’t know about the cal grant.</p>
<p>You can still keep your fin aid. They go by your estimated cost of attendance. This includes books, commuting, housing, food ect. Even if you are living at home. I get like 6k a year at my CC even though I have a fee waiver. I don’t know about Cal grant though, I don’t get that.</p>
<p>alright cool thanks cus I heard some people were telling me I cant keep government money if my school is already payed for.</p>
