There are many ways to finance your education. Because there are so many types of financial aid available, it is important to obtain accurate information. The Student Financial Services Office is dedicated to assisting students and families through the financial aid process in the most effective and friendly manner possible. When you apply for the FAFSA or California Dream Act Application (CADAA), you are applying for:

California College Promise Grant (CCPG)
