When is FAFSA due?

[srjcstud]

<p>I already submitted the FAFSA for next year, but my girlfriend who is a slacker hasn't. I was wondering when the deadline is. Is is Jan. 30 or March 31?</p>

<p>Neither. It’s due March 2, 2010 to be eligible to receive all financial aid one is eligible for. It can be sent after that, but financial aid will be given on an as available basis.</p>

<p>

Students who file the FAFSA and GPA Verification Form between January 1 and March 2, and who submit any required supporting documents by the deadline specified, will receive all financial aid for which they are eligible. Students who submit the FAFSA after March 2 will receive aid only if funds permit. Students who submit the FAFSA and/or GPA Verification Form after March 2 will not be eligible for the Cal Grant.
