<p>I forgot to fill out a FAFSA because I wasn't sure if I would be thinking about going to UC schools (I know, stupid), but now that I got in I am thinking strongly about attending. Should I still fill out a FAFSA now? What is the March 2nd deadline about?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>You can do it, though they may have passed out much of the available funds already, but it never hurts to try.</p>
<p>March 2nd deadline is for Cal Grants and priority. If you file now you can probably still get SOME univeristy grants/loans...but it will prob only be a fraction of your unmet need.</p>
